The XDR-M1 portable DAB (Digital Audio Broadcast) portable radio is a smooth little receiver, playing crystal clear radio with hardly any of the connection troubles of satellite radio, the format’s direct competition. A little smaller than a pack of cigarettes, the XDR-M1 supports digital and analog FM and features ten hour playback ability, an in-line remote, and four line display on the front. A few more of the special features the DAB format affords—like time shift and recording— would be nice, but ability to save up to forty of your favorite stations and store text notes helps make up for their lack.
