To say that one has walked on the moon in 1969 (45 years ago!) And there is no longer a simple AM / FM radio and manual without electronic bling bling ... except some models made in china and This Philips radio I had the old model but the selection wheel of stations is dirty and impossible to change it rather annoying! in short it is still effective with this ergonomic device (over design) and beefier across (even a headphone jack!) minimum battery consumption and very reasonable price so nickel!
