I forgot to add one more thing. My two MP3 players with FM tuners have
very poor reception....almost as if the tuner was added as an extra
feature that doesn't actually work as advertised. When I want good FM
reception I have to use a non-MP3 player.
When you're done with your search I'd very very much like to hear what
you end up with. Please let us know!!
