Our take on the Emerson Portable AMFM Radio with Earbuds and Wide Frequency Range of Stations

The Emerson ER-7002 is a pocket-sized AM/FM radio with a headphone jack, volume wheel and a neck strap. It runs on two AAA batteries and includes earbuds, so you can listen privately without a speaker. It suits walkers, commuters and anyone who wants a backup radio for news and ballgames. Against larger portable radios it trades a speaker and presets for size and simplicity; owners rate it around 4.1 out of 5, praising its small size and easy tuning while noting weak reception and battery life.
