Sony SFR-M37V FM/AM/Weather/TV Radio Walkman with 25 Memory Presets description The SRF-M37V is lightweight, simple-to-use radio, weather and TV receiver. Weighing only 3.3 ounces (94 grams), this compact player is a perfect companion for the track, bike trail or work area. The Walkman gives you many choices of listening pleasure. You will receive FM and AM radio, TV (channels 2-13) and weather (channels 1-7.) Whatever your passion, whether it be talk radio, hit radio, TV shows or weather forecasts, you are sure to capture it with this Walkman. The FM antenna is part of the headphone cord, so you are sure to receive a strong signal. The AM antenna is a ferrite bar type. The local/distant switch will help you fine tune the reception. Both the volume and tuning buttons are digital, providing accurate mechanisms to find the exact station you desire. There are twenty-five preset stations on the SRF-M37V. This includes ten FM, five AM, five TV and five weather stations. There are also five direct key presets, allowing you to electronically tune into any five stations you desire, even if listening to a different band. The LCD display's digital clock will keep you updated to current time. There is also a battery indicator, keeping you aware of remaining battery life. Sony has included their MDR (micro dynamic receiver) headphones with the SRF-M37V. These headphones are open air type; the headphones will allow ambient noise to filter into the ear canal, providing a rich sound and keeping you safely aware of events, people and automobiles around you. The headphones provide ample dynamic range and sound. The Walkman requires only one AAA battery, keeping the receiver lightweight and inexpensive to operate. There is also a belt clip included, so you can carry the Walkman on your belt. The color is a modern black. What's in the Box |

| ♥♥♥♥♥ | Great am/fm/tv/weatherband pocket radio |
| Comments for prospective buyers:
1) PLL (Phase locked loop) digitally synthesized radio with very low noise. 2) This radio can only be manually tunned by pressing the + (advance) or - (retreat) tuning button. It will even advance automatically if you hold the button down and you can hear the stations as they are received as the radio sweeps through the frequencies so you know where to stop holding the button and locate stations (unlike Sangean pocket radios which mute during automatic scan and seek functions). Thus, there is no fully automatic, press and scan or even a seek function, but I have found its manual tuning capability totally adequate. 3) It is as good or better than Sangean pocket radios that I have recently tried as well (including the famous DT-200VX). It remains to be seen if the new (March 2008) Sangean DT-400W (with NOAA weather coverage and broadcast alerts) will compete with the Sony SFR-37V. 4) It has a one year limited warranty and not 90 days as listed on numerous websites including Amazon.com. This time limit is clearly listed on the materials supplied by Sony with the radio. 5) I get excellent reception here in the mountains of New Mexico for a super-portable am/fm/tv/weatherband radio receiver with 25 presets (5 am/10/fm/5 tv and 5 for weather) that lasts 40-55 hours on one AAA battery. Weatherband signals are weak by the nature of the short range, low power NOAA transmitters and you must turn up the volume to adequately hear them and then adjust it back down for most am/fm stations especially. 6) All presets are very intuitive and easy to set and also to change as needed, especially if you travel a lot. As long as you change batteries within 3 minutes of removing the battery no presets will be lost. 7) It is extremely durable and well made and should last a very long time. In fact, my son's SRF-37V was extensively chewed 3 years ago by his young puppy and it still works! Also, the battery cover is hinged to the radio so that it can't be lost. It also comes with a belt clip that nicely and firmly attaches to the radio for convenience. 8) When using it inside a building go as close to the windows/walls as you can to get the very best reception. Radio waves do not penetrate very thick structures well so the best reception should generally be found outdoors for hiking, jogging, just plain walking, etc. 9) As others have stated you probably will want a better set of earphones to fully enjoy listening. This is my personal update for an old analog Sony radio (the SRF-19W am/fm stereo radio Walkman) from the late 1980's that is still working (also with no speaker and with a DX RF (radio frequency) gain switch even way back then)! |
