a superb portable			Time owned: more than 12 months
For the price, and considering that it is a portable, this is one awesome little radio. I am constantly amazed at how well it performs with just the whip antenna. It gets even better with a 50 foot outdoor longwire clipped to the antenna, and the front end handles it just fine. I mainly use it for trips, and when I want to sit outside, or in other rooms of the house while I tune and listen. I have compared it to my Palstar R30A, an excellent performing tabletop receiver which is very highly regarded. Using the same 50 foot outdoor longwire for both, there is very little, if anything, that I can receive with the Palstar that I cannot also receive with the Sony. It even receives the vast majority of the signals with just the whip. The Sony's audio can't come anywhere close to the Palstar's, of course, but the Sony is a little portable, so that's to be expected. If you can't deal with the sound from the speaker, try a pair of quality noise blocking earbuds. It sounds great.
