Re: [IRCA] Sony XDRS10HPiP radio

[Patrick Martin <mwdxer@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have found a lot of bargains at local Goodwill's. Often the 'Off the path" ones are better with good finds. I have found the Tillamook, Lincoln City, and Scappoose Goodwill's better that Portland. The smaller cities offer better prices where in the bigger cities are more expensive. It is just "hit and miss" Sometimes there are goodies and other times nothing too exciting. Lots of older clock radios, DVD players, TV's, even some car radios with cassette tapes. Amps, you name it. My friend Carey go often when traveling around the NW. He looks for old movies on DVD. I look at the electronics. We plan a trip next Summer down the coast, over to the Valley and back up. We should be able to hit about 8 Goodwill's. Fun stuff.

Patrick,

That’s some serious bargain hunting! Nice finds! I’ve been wanting to purchase a WiFi radio—maybe I’ll prowl Goodwill instead.

The clerk said "How about $4.99, but the radio is "as is", no returns. I even got my 10% Senior Citizen discount, so it was $4.49!!! Got it home, hooked up the FM Yagi and it works perfectly. I got several FM stations in HD including KJR FM Seattle. It even has a connection on the top for an Ipod. I tried the Ipod connection   and it works too. This radio has two front speakers with Surround Sound and sounds great! The signal is even a hair better than on my XDR-F1 HD. That is the 3rd good deal I have found of late at Goodwill. This was the best of the bunch. First I found a Turntable/cassette/CD recorder for $20. Then I found a wifi radio for $15. All three work fine too. On the XDRS10HPiP radio, I have not tried the AM at yet. My XDR-F1 HD gets KSL in HD at times at night. I presume this one will too. Depending
