Electronics : Sony SRF-M37L Personal Radio
Rating: 
- Misrepresented radio?
Be careful ordering this radio on the Amazon site. You will find if you look that there are two Sony SRF M37 Personal radios advertised by Amazon, and they are in fact different!!?? I thought I had ordered the Sony SRF-M37 with 'long wave' radio, as recommended by John Friel, but this was NOT the radio I was supplied with. Instead, as M Van der Velde says in his review I got an AM/FM radio designed for the US market, presumably manufactured for when the US was due to convert to digital signals. This meant it included a 'TV' channel band, and a weather band, both of which actually appear to do nothing in the UK. I have given the radio two stars, because it does work reasonably well as an AM/FM radio, but this is just me being generous. The radio I ordered should have had long wave (for the cricket mainly) and this one doesn't, so I have been sold a pup. I am in the process of complaining to Amazon, who hopefully will adjust their advertising and realise the mistake they have made!

- Great little radio
I have had one of these for a few years, I use it daily at work. The only trouble I have had is with the earphones - I'm on about my third pair (Koss do good ones). I have had quite a few personal radios in the past and this is easily the best.
An excellent buy.
Rating: - Good radio? Great radio!
I like radios, I hate poor quality and poor perfomance which is usually found in cheap nasty radios with obscure names you get from the likes of discount stores.
That said, my Sony SRF-M37L has the most remarkable sound and quality and robustness which would never be found in a cheap £3 nasty, ok you need to pay a bit more for a radio which will not let you down but what you get with this little gem of a Sony you will treasure.
I did read a review by one guy who pointed out that the radio would switch itself on accidentally, well thats a load of tosh!
Do you think Sony would ever allow that to happen? What this reviewer did n't realise is there is a 'lock off' switch to prevent this, maybe he should have kept the radio a little longer before writing a review.
Thinking of buying a Sony SRF-M37L? Do it! you shall not be disapointed, Long Wave, Medium Wave and 2 Waves of FM to get all of your favourite stations locked in, complete with the ease of use you would be pressed to find better. By the way, I was so pleased with the first one bought I then got another for my wife and she loves it.
