How is the quality of the am/fm radio?

For a small unit I find it extremely great on all stations AM and FM I got it mainly for the turn table as I had some 45 RPM records from the 50's and was looking for some thing to play them on they turned out wonderful the volume was better than what I expected from a unit that small

Exetremely great!!! The first time I used it, it was filled with static. Then I turned the knob for radio reception, and it was clear if you turned it just right. I get KBAQ perfectly!

The quality is very good! I get all the major stations in my area no problems!

It has a better receiver than my radio shack radio. I was impressed with the clarity of am, fm as well. 100 miles seems like a possibility if the broadcast station is a strong one.

I,ve had mine for a while and is very good with some radios. I have an older Sony table model and it works great with it, not so well with modern cheap radios, AM receivers have gotten very poor in the last many years. I just set it on top of the radio and turn it and the antenna dial via inductive coupling, works pretty well. Has a "mini-phono plug" on antenna if your radio has AM connectors, this is for AM only.

Yes. I get all the local FM radio stations. Some are stronger than others but the FM on this unit is decent. No AM though.

No problem with my radio. Pulling in FM stations loud and clear from over 100 miles away using the internal antenna. AM reception is rather weak so I've added an external antenna to get better AM reception

Michael, I mostly listen to FM. I have the radio under a florescent light and the AM has a backround hum for me. I would ask someone who primarily listens to AM about it. I love the FM. Reception clear with many stations. I use it every day.

It's good. Not especially great, but definitely good. It comes with a 4-5 foot FM antenna cable (and similar AM antenna) and what appears to be a standard connection port, so you could possibly attach a 3rd-party antenna.

I have used the radio only once or twice and the quality is pretty good depending on where you are. This little set lives in my kitchen full time and I use it mainly to watch TV.

Audio quality is good considering unit has one speaker. The bass and treble controls only help to improve the audio range. The sensitivity of the receiver is very good and with an external antenna you should have no problem with receiving any "difficult" FM stations.

I have owned two of these radios and would give them both five star ratings. I can't say why some folks would rate the unit one star. The quality I value most is its ability to pick up distant AM and FM stations with weak signals. It has excellent sound quality and offers dual power. I would not suggest any changes to make it better, except perhaps to have an ipod plug.

Yes. Am/fm are available. Depending you area HD AM radio too. You'll find more HD FM. Very good stereo.

So far, I've only used the radio (primarily AM) on the unit and I've found it to be satisfactory.

Hello Rhonda...unfortunately it does not have am/fm radio unless you download an app to get it. Hopes this helps.

Yes. Mine is incredibly finicky. The FM is so sensitive that it takes me a few min to tune stations. The AM is rock solid. I do think it needs to be fixed though, it shouldn't be that hard to tune in a station like the one I'm trying to get. I have a Sangean digital radio and it gets everything just fine.

My experience has been it performs very well. I purchased it precisely for AM radio reception and haven't been disappointed.

I have had no problems receiving all my local am fm radio stations. Can not beat this radio for the price.
