What's a good portable radio?

Question

I am a morning runner and I like to listen to NPR while I'm running but I can't find a good radio. I need something that will hold the frequencies while I'm running. Also I would love it if I could set my favorite radio stations kind of like in a car. Can anybody help.

Answer 1

One of the small portable, battery-powered satellite jobs would do the trick - and hold the station (becaue it's digital). XM's "Public Radio" is excellent.

Sirius carries most of the NPR line up.

Take your choice. Just search their websites for an appropriate receiver.

As to commercial radio, best bet? Best Buy. Just look through their selection in person 'til you find one that suits. Then either buy it there or search online for a better price.

Answer 2

Both of the Satellite radios have not only car, but boomboxes, and yes the walkman version. Best Buy, the people are very helpful. It depends how much you want to spend.
