Summary: This TV saved my butt!
Review: Can't say enough about how handy and convenient this little box is! I was recently transplanted to Georgia...where even a "dusting" of snow makes everyday life grind to a halt. This past winter (99-00), northern Georgia (and much of the rest of the NE coast) got hit by a severe ice-storm. In the suburban Atlanta are where I live, downed power-lines left more than 500,000 homes without power for as long as 3 days! Mine was out for about 36 hrs. My little GPX 5" portable became the focus point of my house for the next day and a half! Loaded up with batteries, it let my son and I keep abreast of how the repairs were going and have tv entertainment in the evening. Now, my son uses it when he wants to sleep out in his backyard tent. Picture was sharp and clear with good contrast and little interference considering that it was receiving on it's internal telescoping antenna. Battery life was surprisingly long...I think we ran it for about 6 1/2 hours all togethter and we didn't run out of juice. And the thing is so lightweight that you can prop it on your tummy in bed and forget that it's there. Very happy with this little unit...and I'd recommend that everyone should have one stashed in a closet "just in case!"

Summary: Pretty Decent Reception
Review: I have one of these at home, and it is a pretty good little TV for the price. I recommend it for secondary uses around the home. And like I said in my title- the reception is pretty nice.
