The signal is extremely clear, no fuzz, no static, and that is for all the stations I could receive on my analog radio, even the ones that were far enough away that they had a little fuzz, and this is without having to work at getting the dial positioned just right. I am currently having fun checking out out the new stations I receive, and testing the limits of those which do come in kind of fuzzy.
I haven't come close to maxing out the volume, as the signal and the sound quality are so excellent.
It is quite light, about the same as a boombox, maybe a little heavier, but not as heavy as a stereo. If I bump it with my hand or a book, it doesn't slide on the desk.
I could plug in my ebook reader, or even my PC, and I may under some situations (like playing Radio Margaritaville or other Internet radio stations, or playing audiobooks on my PC). However, a lot of time when I am listening to my ebook reader with the headphones on, it is because I am in bed going to sleep, and I feel that this is enough of a sleep habit that I want the headphones on. Also, the accessible ebook readers are consistently designed with short power cords, and the HD radio is on the far side of the aerye, so I couldn't use any of the keys if I wanted to.
