It’s already had several knocks and been dropped a couple of times, and it doesn’t seem bothered in the slightest. It’s very light to carry and has a handy clip, so you can attach it to the inside of your coat, or to your belt, and forget about it.
The first thing that impressed me about it was the quality of the reception. In areas where I had little or none before, I can now tune in. That has to be due to the quality of the device, rather than anything else. There is a local...
