I'm originally from Ohio and now live 1/2 way between Atlanta and
Athens, Georgia. When they assigned frequencies, this was almost
literally Deliverance territory. Athens has no FM stations, save the
university's public radio station, that can reach more than a few miles
outside the community. In addition, the AM band during the day is
virtually silent between my home and Athens where I teach at UGA.

Can someone suggest a radio that has a very, highly sensitive
antenna/receiver for BOTH AM and FM radio? (I worked at WTVN-AM in
Columbus, Ohio 1981-1983 and remember the station's program director
had what looked like an ordinary transistor radio, especially in size,
but he was picking up AM stations all over the dial *in the daytime.*

Any suggestions? Sure, I'd like it to sound, nice, too, and I couldn't
mind having it for my daily walking exercise.

I know it's out there somewhere. (I don't need SW but won't be
surprised if that's and add-on I can't opt out of having.)

P.S. Yes, I have XM radio at home, but I want to be able to pull in
weak broadcast signals anyway.
