which radio has good reception at lower end of FM stations?

I found that the quality of sound and reception was VRY GOOD all across the band. My complaint about this radio is that it takes a minute or two for it to find and lock onto the station you pick when you first turn the radio on. It has terrible drift for several minutes but once the radio has been on for several minutes it has a wonderful sound.

I use the RCA radio in the mountains to listen too public radio. It performs well. I wish it had digital tuning, but otherwise, I am very satisfied.

I wouldn't buy the RCA super radio. Cheaply constructed and horrible reception.

a little but, because your selection of stations is slim. But on a good connection there is no static at low volume.

I listen to AM talk radio so its not to bad with AM. But when listening to FM music you will loose a lot of stereo quality. I do anyway here in Lou,Ky. We are not on flat ground around here. I put my factory antenna back on. I personally don't recommend it.

I don't know. I use this radio like any other and change stations according to what I want to listen to. No expert on this so hope my answer helps.

Not for me. I get only 2 AM statics and those have a lot of static. I get 41 FM stations so I am satisifed. Of all the radios I have experience with few receive AM well.

Hello D. Deen. I work in a older 3 story building, approx 90 plus years old, made of brick and cinder block. I get good reception on the second floor. The FM is strong regardless where the radio is. The AM works better by a window and away from electronics like computers. All said I am very happy with this radio.

According to my husband, FM reception is fine. Other than just to try it out, we haven't really used it.

Yes, with the plug in antenna the FM reception is good. However, AM is terrible.

You would need to pick a station that is the most optimal for reception. Here, live 106.7 is really bad on my car - I can only hear just a faint, but 105.9 (unused station) did it for me. Now it sounds really clear without any humming noise during intermission.

It has a range from 88.1 all the way up to 107.9. It's just a matter of which ones are usable, depending on the area. 105.5 works best for me in my neck of the woods.

Not sure about Boston. But generally the reception is okay. This is actually a very small radio. So cannot expect much. But the radio is very cute and it has great tuning.

Do not know, but if you have a plug port for external / additional antenna I would try it. Where we use this antenna there is not much reception of anything but don't need much to pull in many radio stations.

The one good thing about this radio, is its reception. I live just outside a metropolitan area and have had no problems AM or FM.
