There is a company called C. Crane that sells a wide variety of radios. They're a little pricy, but get excellent reviews. They also run sales from time to time for what they call "orphan" products, returns which they have refurbished and guarantee. As someone else pointed out, your reception also depends on your location. You might need a supplementary antenna, which C. Crane also sells. Their website is www.ccrane.com.

You can also try appliance stores for Sony and other name brands. I have an old Sony that's going on 30 years old. It still works fine, although I have reception problems where I live. I should get a supplementary antenna but never get around to it.

I have heard that the Davidson radios are the best, I think they are only available online- but I am content with my Sony. Don't waste money on radios from BigLots though. Twice now I have bought defective electronics there. Never again.

The reception you get on any radio will depend on your location.
