This is a basic am/fm/weather radio that I found on the shelf at Radio Shack this past weekend. It comes in red or white colors or at least that is what was on the shelf that day. It has what is called a dynamo crank to recharge the battery as well as a built in light for emergencies. I powered it up and liked what I heard. It sounded very good and for the price of 49.99 I felt that the Eton co...

Listen to music, news, and talk wherever you are!This small pocket radio has great reception, many features, and runs on 2 AA batteries.  There is a battery life indicator, and a set lasts about 24 hours using the headphones (probably less using the speaker).You can listen to AM, FM (Stereo in the headphones), and broadcast TV (though I am not sure what will happen with the digital TV conv...

I have a job that requires me to be in my car most of the day. I deliver products to various stores and I am usually in my car around 5 or 6 hours a day. You could probably imagine that it can get boring just listening to the same stuff on the radio. Because of this, I really got interested in podcasts. The only problem I had was how to listen to my iPod in my vehicle. It is not really safe to ...

My husband and I bought the Craig AM FM Shower Radio about two years ago after one of the hurricanes that hit Florida. We had no power for over a week, so when the radio that we were using decided to call it quits, we were desperate to find a fast replacement. The pickings were slim at the stores that actually had power, so we immedietly bought the lone shower radio sitting on the almost bare s...

The piece of junk does not even worth $10.99 when I bought it although it was listed around the market at $30+. The transmitting ability is weak and inconsistent with some wave sound interrupting at times. Once a while it will lose connection and I have to tweak it all over again which is really annoying while driving on the road. I should be enjoying myself on the road while listening to my fa...

When playing on this amp, I use a Zoom G2 effects unit through the clean channel.  A review of the sound I can achieve like this would not be a true review of the amp.  The amp itself puts out a clean tone unrivaled by other amps in this class.  Before buying this amp I played on the Marshall 250 DFX.  While it had more effects (all of which put out a rather cheap sound), it...

I bought the Airtronics MX-3 FM radio for use with my R/C vehicle. You can buy these for low prices of $100 with a servo included. I have used this radio for 2 months, and it is quite amazing. The amount of tuning options available on this radio is endless. If you've never experienced FM computer radio quality compared to an AM radio, you will be amazed at the range and preciseness of contr...

We needed a new clock radio as our old one had the alarm go out, so my boyfriend ran out to Radio Shack to see what he could find. Imagine my surprise when he walked in the door with a GE AM/FM clock radio with alarm and carbon monoxide detector built in!Pretty cool, sounding, huh?The AM/FM clock radio and alarm all work standard and very well. The read out is the basic lit digital numbers. The...

I have been looking for a radio with good am reception and being a ham radio operator the shortwave bands interested me as well on this radio. While at Radio Shack I tried several radio's to see which one would have the best reception in the store. This particular one seemed to pick up the stations I was trying to tune better than the others. From what I understand Grundig makes a...

For a few years now, one of my favorite hobbies has been listening to shortwave radio from around the world.  If you happen to share this interest, the Sangean ATS-909 is one of the best world-band radios that I have owned.  It is very small and compact compared to other shortwave radios on the market.  The reception is excellent considering its size, as many of the other smaller...

How well did it do?The Macally FM Cup iPod Transmitter and Charger is an iPod FM transmitter that allows me to access my iPod...

The Fender FM 65 Frontman Combo Amplifier is a solid state amplifier with one 12 inch speaker and 65 watts.  It is black in color and has built in effects for the guitar.I purcahsed this amp because my normal amp is much too heavy to haul around.  I figured I'd get a solid state amp that I can easily haul with me whenever I want and to have a backup amp around.The amp certainly is...

You can choose to have the radio come on or&...

Belkin TuneBase FM for iPod mini A true, must-have product for my family! I have an iPod, like so many others, LOVE IT! So do my kids, even though I don’t let them use it often. Like so many families, we find ourselves in the car a lot, running from place to place. We also have family (grandparents) located many several hundred miles away. I used to have the car cassette, with a car...

The Wife and I weighed up the pro's and con's of buying the PUR FM-5050C 3 Stage Horizontal Faucet Mount with Flavored Cartridge. We were buying bottled water on a weekly basis and worked out that in less than a year the filter would pay for itself and being quite a green family it would help the enviroment at the same time with less plastic waste. The filter claims to get rid of 99% of...

I just happened to be in Radio Shack and a small radio caught my eye. The G-6 Aviator Buzz Aldrin edition. It receives am/fm/aircraft/shortwave with frequencies. It will hold 700 stations in the memory. It is not very big about the size of a small transistor radio. (Actual size is 4.92 inchesx3inchesx1.14inches.) Actual weight is about 7.3 ounces.The first thing that hit my mind as I ...

I bought the Relaxor radio/sound machine several years ago for my husband to use in his office. When he decided to upgrade to a CD player, the Relaxor was brought home and I now use it in my craft room. It is perfect for me because I have the option to listen to music on an FM station, talk radio on an AM station or when I just want to think, I turn on the sound machine and chill. I also needed...

I had a different FM Transmitter for my iPod and it wasn't very good. Well it ended up breaking minutes before my friends and I were leaving for a road trip. We definitely needed to listen to the iPod on our road trip so I ran into a Radio Shack by my house and picked this one up because the sales clerk recommended it to me.The reason I liked this one to begin was it was an FM Transmitter f...

This is another very nice radio. Made by the folks at ETON it comes with am/fm/sw reception. It has an emergency light built into it. It has a hand crank to recharge the batteries and is solar powered as well. A very nice touch. They call this one the Solarlink American Red Cross FR-500. The one I used was white. It certainly felt pretty well made to the touch but I wondered as I always do abou...
