Yes it does. It's in the sound settings and really makes my sony speakers kick.

Not that I'm aware of, but that would be great. The radio is fantastic. I'm getting stations I'd never gotten clearly before. It was a big investment for me, but glad I took the plunge.

No it does not. Just regular radio stations. I for one was disappointed with my Sony S544. I bought it because it was stated that it was one of the better MP3 players which had a long battery life. I find this to not be true at all. I was told I would get about 50+ hours and only get about 10-15. I have tested it several times playing it straight through from night until morning and when doing so have to re-charge it sometime the next day. I love everything else about it though and the battery life still seems to be better than many others.

Yes. I believe it depends on the track data provided in a particular format. Usually older tracks don't show and only scrolls the radio station i.d. cd, flash drives etc does the same. Hope this helps. Great unit for the money!

It does NOT receive digital or trunked transmissions. Analog only which is good for me because all EMS/Fire/Police frequencies in my area are still in the 152-173 MHz range on FM.

Yes it does. We couldn't get any thing on our old radio but this one is super good

I don't notice any on mine. It does a good job of locking onto stations, especially weaker ones I could not get before. Rotate the AM bar antenna for clarity and run the wire antenna close to a window for good FM/SW reception. Very, very clear. I listen with Sony buds at low volume often. Of course, a more elaborate antenna setup willenhance S/W abilities. But the DSP chips used do live up to their claims on this gem.

No, I haven't found it yet. Though I found some other radios like vtuner radio for instance.

Not that I know of. I don't think it has a radio feature. At least I haven't seen it.

Yes it does. This is one of the only radios that retains full factory functionality

Yes it does. If you hold down the menu button for a couple seconds, the display will change to a radio station. It gives you the option to program a few of your favorite stations as well.

It most certainly does, especially if you order it from the Amazon vendor Baofeng Tech. I don't advise ordering this radio from any other Amazon vendor. Hope this answers your question.
