does it take a sd card to play mp3'sView attachment 53174

I believe they take a Micro SD for mp3's on the back of the unit.

 

[caution]

The prototype I saw at NostalgiaCon a couple years ago had the memory card slot inside the tape deck.

Some pictures I forwarded from their recent update for your convenience.


Comes included with a replica of the original remote, miniature cassette tape, a carrying case, and a couple of other things I can't remember.

The large one has USB, BT, FM, and 3.5mm aux.
The smaller one (the Micro) only has BT to my knowledge.

The large one looks interesting, i wonder how much it is, i doubt anyone in the uk can afford it though as we now have to pay insane import charges these days

Yeah... they got rid of the AM radio!!!!

I'm actually really disappointed about that. I actually listen to AM radio daily. I'm still sticking with it. But emailed them asking if the function is still accessible if I were to play with it myself. We'll see, but I'm pretty bummed.

What do you listen to on AM?
I personally never use it, so I'm not affected. I just hope the FM has good reception, which almost never happens with modern speakers these days.

Back I would use AM for sports games. But they are all on FM these days so I would never use AM anyway.

Still, it a bummer it was deleted as it was a feature. Hopefully as posted above it’s still there to mess with and enable.

Mostly baseball, but other sports talk. We don't have it on FM radio here, and the apps they have for my station are terrible.

March to October I listen to AM radio most of the day, pretty much every day.

Baseball is only on AM here. I don't hardly get to watch the games on tv, and I prefer to listen.

They play Seahawks football on FM, but all other sports talk here is AM

I am soooo excited to have these. For the price we paid as kickstarters, the wait and changes are worth it. Can't wait to have them in my hands!

I never realised this when I backed the project, but its coming in the jvc replica box! I thought that was a very nice touch!

In tried AM on my Panasonic which picks up a ton of FM. Not much on AM around here anymore.

I hope they do more as I will buy them all.

Interesting how there's still a ton of AM here in the Seattle-Tacoma area, and sounds like not much at all for some of you.

My Panasonics are weird for radio... they all often require rotating the radio instead of moving the antennas.

In Colorado many of the high band FM channels also have an AM alternate.

The lack of AM Radio functionality doesn't really affect me since I know the tuner will be choppy anyway, and attempting to pick up a distant AM station like KGO would be difficult with a choppy tuner anyway. I have several other vintage radios that are great AM DX'ers, including a Trans-Oceanic D7000Y.
