It covers the AM (540-1700 kHz) and FM (88-108 MHz) bands, with analog tuning. Its speakers produce good quality sound for a small radio, and it is capable of achieving a rather high volume without distortion. The Suntone ELEC9900 weighs 11.4 ounces, or 14.8 with batteries.

There is a similar radio made by Ultronic, which is the same shape as "The Curve" but is silver-colored and has a digital clock. Both radios can be purchased inexpensively on eBay, at garage sales, and at thrift shops.
