Can I use this in a stadium? Does it have a built in battery and headphone/speaker connection? I can hold the antenna in my hand.

Runs off car battery. Does have an aux out for headphone use and I assume as long as the antenna has a clear view of the sky it would work. Power should be your only issue. There are jamvoxes that the unit clips to so if you can carry electronics in the stadium that may be the simple solution. Good luck!

No built in battery. You can plug head phones in aux line. May not get good reception.

No, it needs a power source. Ac/ DC connection. No headphone connection either

no it has a built in battery -- it a good product - the radio want to linger off the radio station as it plays because its not digital - if u r not close to a radio station forget getting radio -- other than that its a good product

Having installed it (at home) and connected it to use (fine) - I have to admit that I encountered no battery box or literature that suggested it was anything but a passive antenna. Please double check this, with the company! (am an EE with a lot of radio exp. from DC to daylight ... but saw nothing that suggested it was an active antenna).

It can connect to the radio wirelessly or to an extra set of headphones wirelessly. But i get static sometimes through the radio. Head phones are much better so that the kids can watch a show and i can listen to something different. The only wired connections that you need with this unit are at the dome light.

The unit comes with an external antenna(a wire lead in the rear). There are also jack ports for aux in, line out, and headphones.

Hello Gloria, The radio has a built in antenna but it also comes with a wire FM antenna if it is needed. External AM antennas are sold separately if you find you need one.

For the cost and the size of the unit the FM reception is really good. The only problem is that there is no antenna so you have to use the headphones that come with the unit to get the best reception. I work in a rural part outside of Atlanta and I work in a metal booth that is totally inclosed. I have had reception issues with other headsets and this is by far the best. Hope that helps

It has it's own speaker. The FM and Bluetooth capabilities are additional features if you want to use them.

I don't think so. It appears to be self contained and out of reach, much like an iPad battery. I personally wouldn't worry about it too much for a speaker at this price point.

This radio is not made for portable use. There are some battery powered portable models. I considered one of these for stadium use but decided against it because the total signal delay would be about 30 seconds. XM adds a 15-20 second buffering delay (to allow an uninterrupted signal when driving under underpasses, etc.) to the radio delay. I think the delay is unacceptable for stadium use.

It has a built in external antenna. It does not have external attachment for any extra antenna you may want to attach. Hope that answers your question.

Yes you can plug it in like a normal radio. I try to only plug in when it needs charging as I don't want to ruin the battery by leaving it plugged all the time. The item only comes with a USB wire that fits into the speaker so you will need the power part. I use the extras I have from my cell phones.

I don't see a special (external) antenna connection; however, there is an FM wire 'antenna' from the back. Perhaps that could be extended.

It comes with earbuds, plus another long wire that looks like the earbud cable, but is terminated in a small block of plastic. Either one work as an antenna. I soldered a short piece of a broken antenna to the ground lug on a phone jack. It is about 6" long extended and works fine for FM and weather where I live. A piece of wire or a flexible antenna from an old cordless phone would probably work too. If you are going to be in a remote area, then the earbudss or long antenna would be more efficient.

Not that I know of. I've looked into wireless earbuds and headphones. I don't think you will have any luck. Also, the earbud cord seems to be the antenna. Tried a jawbone type speaker and it won't work.
