Great little pocket radio
This is a good little radio. I wanted something to keep in a pocket and with a speaker so I could catch the news or some of Radio 4's comedy programmes when out and about. This fits the bill perfectly. My score (below) for sound quality reflects my view on what you might expect for a radio of this size. You don't buy a radio like this for serious music listening. For its size, it is perfectly acceptable.

Bush Baby Radio
An ideal size to drop into a pocket, and a reasonable sound for a small speaker. The downside is that setting up the favourite stations can be a bit fiddly as the prompt is right up the top of the screen, then, if you have to replace the batteries they aren’t saved so you have to go through the process all over again.

Hello Froggy,
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for the Bush Personal Portable FM Radio - Black: ''Yes it can.''
Thank you for using Q and A.
This is not my experience. It appears to be switched off, but then after not using it for a couple of days it suddenly makes a loud noise, like background interference, which indicates that the battery is out of power. This has happened twice in the three weeks that I have had the product.
Hello, I can advise, from the information available, that this Bush Personal Portable FM Radio - Black switches off completely when the power button is pressed. Thank you for using Bush Q & A.
Im answering own question. It is 76 grams without batteries. 2xAAA are around 20g. So just under 100g with batteries.
