looking for miniature fm/am receiver

[Tim Ettenheim]

I'm looking for a miniature fm/am radio with digital tuning and a strong
receiver -- preferably no larger than a cigarette pack, no speaker
necessary. Any ideas?

Sony SW-100 fits the bill. Has a silly little speaker, but the stereo
line output in FM is of excellent hifi quality, although not as good
at various bad condition interference rejection as a large expensive
dedicated receiver unit.

Size of an audio cassette case, it was originally designed as a
no-expense-spared flagship of Sony's miniature radio technology, and
is still hard to beat at its size.
