Radios In The Room

["Russ Butler" <oldradio@earthlink.net>]

And why is it that hotels and motels today have those cheap little GE or
Panasonic AM-FM radios  in the rooms?  They are hard to tune, the switches
are often broken, reception  quality stinks on both AM and FM, the little
speakers sound tinny and the alarm function usually does not work anyway.

They are bolted down on the side table, and who would want to take them
home?  Anyone have examples of in-room radios that really do work well and,
are people actually listening to the radio when there is cable tv, HBO, etc.
to watch and games to play on the telly?   <rant is now off>
