For some reason AM and FM reception is difficult in my house. We live in a large town, no more than 5 miles from a 50k AM station but got static, and the FM station we wanted, forget.
The nice Sony clock radio we had just couldn’t cut it.
After much internet research I settled on a Sangean RCR-22.
Excellent radio,, excellent reception AM and FM . Pulls in the stations we want no problem.
And the clock keeps time w/ WWV.
Check it out.
Very interestink.
