Joel:
If you still have it -- What page of the flyer was it on? Tried to view it
online, couldn't see it..
It's probably something like the Jwin or similar. If you really want a
beach radio, pick up the Kaito 1101, 1102 or 1103. Those can be had for
$60 - $100 and are much, much better radios.
I have the 1102 and it is very acceptable for rocking-chair listening, but
there is no bass to speak of. I believe the 1101 has better bass but is
single conversion, if I remember the Passport review correctly. The 1103
has more bells & whistles but doesn't perform as well as the 1102.
