Carol - can't say, I just trust Roberts as a brand, read the specs and reviews online, and make my choice that way. I've bought 2 that way, and one for a family member, and all had very good sound, and proved to be very good value. Just my subjective opinion of course <smile> -

So where am I likely to get hands on and see a few models, please? -- Carol carol.pearson29@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxOn Tuesday, March 24, 2009 1:52 PM (UK time), ANDY COLLINS at Andy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx said:Hi Carol - Roberts do a good range of small radios with the specs you posted, ranging from a pocket one to larger models with carry handle. Although the pocket sets only have a single speaker, they have FM stereo when listening on headphones. I think the larger models are only mono, but I don't know all that is available, so maybe there are larger model, single speaker sets, with stereo output to headphones. Sorry, but am hopeless on remembering model numbers <smile> but many are now less than 30 quid, and good value in my opinion. - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carol Pearson" <carol.pearson29@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Access UK Mailing List" <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, March 24, 2009 12:11 PM Subject: [access-uk] ANY RECOMMENDATIONS PLEASE?Hi, Sadly, my husband's very portable radio (with its own speaker) has sadly died. We need to replace it as soon as poss and are looking for FM, AM and long waves and it must have its own speaker with a reasonably decent sound and remain small. Any suggestions of particular current makes/models would be welcome? -- Carol carol.pearson29@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
