Having recently purchased two of these radios I decided to compare it with a GE Super Radio 3. The Crosley actually had slightly better sensitivity (on the AM band) than did the GE. The selectivity of the Crosley is also the equal of the Super Radio on the narrow setting. I'm able to ferret out weak stations adjacent to powerful stations with ease. I did prefer the sound quality of the GE though. I rarely listen to FM but for the sake of this review I tested it with very good results. Even with the whip antenna collapsed reception was good. Sound quality was good but lacked bass. The Traveler is very sparton, with the bandswitch located in the rear. There is no dial light. I have seen this radio advertised with something called "Electronically Assisted Dial Tuner" but it makes no mention of this in the manual or box and tunes in the manner of all analog dials. Speaking of which; The biggest suprise is the very near spot on dial alignment on both ends of the dial. 700khz. is where it's supposed to be, and 1300khz. is where it's supposed to be. Rather a rare trait to be found on a low cost tuner. One more thing to note: Tuning is quite stiff and immediate. There is no "sponginess" when tuning typical of radios using dial cord. So I suspect (though cannot vouch for it) that it uses a geared tuner. Appears well made and runs off 4AA's or the supplied adapter. Weight is about 4lbs. So there you have it...a fun little inexpensive DX machine!!
Love it! June 12, 2010

Bought it for the vintage look and it's just as cool in person! Has amazing reception with little interference. It is a little expensive, but it was worth it, as it's not only a great radio but a fun conversation piece.

It is not what I expected. Plastic rims, quite big, poor signal (maybe because of my location). The dial doesn't have light.
