  • Notes

  • The Coby CX-CB91 is a 9 band AM/FM/SW portable radio with clock and alarm function.  Bands covered include:

    AM Broadcast Band  530 to 1700 kHz
    SW 1 - 5.60 to 5.80 MHz
    SW 2 - 7.15 to 7.40 MHz
    SW 3 - 8.60 to 9.10 MHz
    SW 4 - 9.85 to 10.65 MHz
    SW 5 - 13.35 to 16.05 MHz
    SW 6 - 15.15 to 18.40 MHz
    SW 7 - 20.85 to 23.20 MHz
    FM - 87.5 to 108.5 MHz

    The tuning is analog but the display is digital.  The digital readout is therefore not very accurate.  However, the batteries see a very low drain and seem to last a very long time. The radio, at its original low price, was very useful for travel and power outage emergencies.

    Made in China
