Cons: At this price, none

The jWin JX-M14 is a pocket sized radio that features AM, FM and 7 shortwave bands. It retails for around $30. Amazingly, it can be had for around $10 with a little shopping. The radio is in a stylish silver tone. The case has rounded corners and ...

Pros: Compact, good sensitivity, accurate frequency readout, nifty tilt stand, clear sound, wakeup timer.
Cons: Strange controls, thin sound, no light on display, not really digital.

My Radio Shack DX-351 finally bit the dust. It still works but the speaker sounds very distorted. But what to replace it with? I was in a local store that sells hardware, car parts, and toys and spotted the jWIN JX-M14 in the radio aisle. It was ...

Pros: Small & Sensitive with Stamina!
Cons: None

This radio plays and plays. I just got this radio today and after the first set of AA's and about 6+ hours, it still has plenty of juice to spare!
Reception is good to excellent with its built-in antenna, very sensitive, very precise and about as good as it gets for a package this size.
The time function and wake up alarm is a cool feature too.
No, it doesn't compare to a radio that costs 5 or 10 times more, but for its caliber and bang for buck ratio it may very well be the best of the tiny shortwaves!

Pros: Great Radio, Nice LCD Display
Cons: Does Not Cover 75 & 80 Meter Bands

I bought this radio for $14.99 on an impulse, I have quite a few radios and find this one very good.
The only thing it does not cover is the 75 and 80 meter bands, my Grundig FR-200 does, but the grundig does not have a digital display.
This radio is very sensitive, just about as good as my RS DX-440.
The jwin JX-M14 is a great little radio.
