Date: Fri, 04 Feb 2005 10:35:48 +0100 the radio receiver is poor quality. only for the biggest radio stations you will get aa acceptable reception, for the rest.... btw, battery recharging on the FMR is sometimes quite odd. on my unit actually. sometimes it charges very well, sometimes Rockbox indicate a 80% available, but sudenly the FMR will shut down. I don't have this problem with my JBR , I can go with the batterie even below 7 or 5% charge. On Fri, 4 Feb 2005 21:37:41 -0700, you wrote: >Let me get this straight. The J BR FM is not digital?
