Kaito KA200 Pocket AM/FM Radio, Black

It's small form factor appears unique and distinguishes it from other Pocket radios.Sound is good given its size.

Absolutely amazing service! I ordered the radio on Saturday the 16th of December and received the package the next day by 11:30 am! It was in perfect condition exactly what I expected; the radio is very small and works excellently and plays loud for such a small radio; I would highly recommend this radio!

Recieved the KA200 radio bought from Electronnix a day earlier than expected. I popped some cheap AAA batteries in it and went down the dial on both bands and was quite surprised at at the reception on slide dial a little longer than 1 inch. The tuning dial is nice and firm most likely to prevent drift. The volume dial is a little less firm, and may be OK that way since it is located on top of the radio. The telescopic antenna is only about 7 inches long but seems adequate to pull in local FM stations. The ferrite antenna for AM seems quite good to pull in stations. Even though it states it in the description, this radio does not include the extended AM; mine won't tune past 1610 kHz. The tuning light is a bonus and works well on both bands.The sound from the small speaker sounds good at a relatively close distance; tested in a 15x15 room at medium volume and it was more than adequate. Plugged in some headphones and receive sound from both left and right, albeit mono. Reception via headphone cord seemed as good or better than using the antenna extended and sound coming from the radio's speaker.Please note my test was at approximately 1pm indoors and received all local stations on both bands. I expect night reception to be better especially on the AM band, but it may not be what you would call a good distance listening radio. I will update at a later time.The radio seems to be built well and should last years. The only quibble I have is the telescopic antenna has a small divot which may prove to be a failure point in the future (bending). Also, as reviewed previously the base of the radio will permit the radio to stand upright, but any little wobble of the surface it's sitting on or the slightest breeze will make it fall.I chose this instead of the newer KA210 because I needed a tiny AM/FM to use at work to catch evening ballgames. I have other radios with Weather Band (two of which are Kaito) and it wasn't needed for my intended use. From reading reviews on the KA210, I believe the KA210 is bigger and through Amazon it is more expensive. All said I think this a great purchase, and the price was right.

Recieved this radio in under 24 hours.Fits in pocket very light but sturdy. Easy to use controls and there is also a light that indicates that desired station is tuned in. Sounds brilliantnwith headphones or without. There is even an extendable aerial. I wanted a radio when i take dog for a walk brilliant exactly what I wanted. Excellent value for money.
