COBY CX7 AM/FM Portable Radio (Blue) from COBY. The list price is around US$12.99.
I've had my radio for about three years now and it's a pretty good value. The radio is quite light and is easy to carry while exercising. It comes with a belt clip or a special cord which allows you to hang the radio from your neck. Radio reception is pretty good on both AM and FM.
The included earphones are adequate, but you may find them to be a little uncomfortable for long periods of time as they are not "sculpted" to the shape of the ear. I personally use my own.
Overall, due to its light weight and good radio reception, this radio is highly recommended if you like to listen to the radio while exercising.

Panasonic RF-SW50 Shockwave Portable Radio (Blue) from Panasonic. The list price is around US$39.99.
I tried this in downtown Seattle where I ride my bike from the ferry up to pill hill. It get's very poor reception until up on the hill. I have a 10 year old analog GPX AM/FM receiver which works fine in the same area. The headset ear buds hurt my ears so much I can only wear it for a 10 to 20 minutes.

Coby CX-007 Mini AM / FM Mini Pocket Radio from Coby. The list price is around US$9.99.
The size and convenience of the product is very nicely designed. The sound is not at good as larger and more expensive products, but that is to be expected. Since I just purchased it, I do not know what the future problems will be but so far I am quite pleased with the overall quality and convenience of the radio for my use in commuting.

they are all I expected and more. the only downside is that they start to hurt your ears if you wear them for a long time. other than that... the sound is great and the headphones are compact!

Sony SRF-HM33 Walkman FM/AM Stereo Headphone Radio with 20 Preset Stations from Sony. The list price is around US$44.99.
I am totally pleased with the Sony Headphone Radio. I am an electrical engineer and have designed receivers for many years. No FM receiver can receive FM without being subjected to multipath distortion caused by reflection of FM signals from metal structures or fading due to movement of the antenna. Both of these situations cause reception to fade in and out as you turn your head or walk. This radio works as well as any I have ever used and probably as well as is technically possible.

The AM performance is governed by the size of the antenna. Since the antenna must be small in a headphone receiver, the received signal will be much less than that of a car radio for example. However, I am able to receive AM stations as well as any similar product I have ever used.

I am also impressed by the headphone audio quality and the double headband used to keep the radio/headphone in place as you move.

Overall, I am very satified with this product. And if you recognize the technica...
