I bought this product today and plugged in my "over ear" style headphones, and placed 2 AAA batteries in it, and I was off and running. This device is small and very lightweight, and will fir your needs perfectly if all you need is an AM/FM radio tuner. I am taking it to a race this week, and will be using it all weekend, to tune into the locally broadcasted FM signal to hear the race action all day and all weekend. Couldn't find a better device for the money!
I bought this yesterday for my grandpa. He wanted something that he could listen to the radio with that is portable and could connect to headphones with.
