Summary: Excellent
Review: I bought this radio on February 6.
Specifications are close of what the product performs.
This is an excellent radio, I will recommend it to any one who likes to hear distant or DX stations I am an amateur radio and communications Engineer and I find that this radio fulfills very good every specification.
Good product, so sad to hear that this item is discontinued. Let us wait of what G.E. will bring next. Thanks General Electric Folks!

Summary: By far the best radio
Review: This is, by far, the best radio you can buy for AM/FM reception. The AM reception is fantastic, with a super-large internal AM antenna that can be supplemented with an external antennal for hard-core 'DXing. FM reception is so good you don't need the AFC function, but is only in monaural. Tuning does not drift away from the frequency like so many other tuners. There is also ample room inside the radio to add subcarrier circuits if you are into that sort of thing.The six D-cell batteries last for several months and are a boon for snow storms, power outages, and to tune in far-off stations without electrical interference. The power supply is well shielded from noisy power sources. The sound is very rich with a huge range of bass and treble, which is perfect for attenuating static and whine. The speaker is enormous and the radio features a high-quality tweeter. The sound quality both on AC and batteries is super-powerful. The volume and bass/treble knobs on the front are a little too small for outdoor gloved use but that's the only complaint I have. The antenna is easily replaced if damaged. It seems to be impervious to light rain and splashes but is not water-resistant. I have several of these radios and have given them as gifts. There appears to be some variance in quality between units, such as the maximum volume you can drive the speakers without distortion, but that appears to be due to changing suppliers of the large speaker. Some people are bothered by the frequency display not closely tracking the frequency you're tuning, but I don't think anyone really looks at analog frequency gauges anyway. This is an excellent radio and is great when it is on sale. The regular price is excessive, though, even for this level of quality. Kris

Summary: Decent radio for the $
Review: Not bad for the money. I am happy enough with it to not return the item. It replaces a Superadio 1 I bought back in 1980, and seems comparable in sound and reception quality. This, although it is considerably larger and has no better sound at the low end. I brought it to work, which is a really poor place for AM reception, and was disappointed to find that connecting an 80 foot antenna to the AM terminal had no effect whatsoever on AM reception. Other than that, reception is OK by me.

Summary: Works great, durable
Review: Very durable radio, works very well in a big building where it is hard to get a good reception. The only downside was that I found it to be a bit too big.

Summary: GE Superadio is supurb
Review: Being middle aged, I have owned many radios over the years.The GE superadio is different than most radios because it receives those hard to get stations,with great volume and tone. It is a perfect gift for the sports fan or office worker because of its ability to "reach" for those stations regardless of the unfavorable conditions that render most other radios useless.It even has an external AM connection for ultra long distance reception!! For quality,value and performace there is none better.

Summary: Performance-for-the-price, this is a good radio.
Review: This radio has been on sale in the sub range. I have read countless reviews and purchased two units. Both units work well. There are GE-Superadio websites and discussion groups on the web with lots of info. This radio has worked well on AM near a window at work (lots of computers there) and has worked well on AM and FM at home. This isn't a communication receiver but my experience is that one gets more stations and with better reception especially on AM than most any other basic AM/FM radio. I find FM to work well also. This radio is recommended by many radio stations for listeners who are getting marginal reception. For radio experimenters it is eminently modifiable. A loop antenna can further improve its performance on AM. I am not a sound quality freak but anyone can discern that the sound is very good. It has external antenna terminals and earphone jack.

Summary: super radio sonics
Review: This radio is everything I expected. The sound is excellent and the reception is fine. It is similar in some ways to some of the older style radios from way back that's why I bought it. I did not even know they made radios like these anymore because you typically do not see these sold in stores. The radios size is ideal for me not to large or to small, just right for a portable. It differs from the older style portable radios from way back in that it is made of plastic. The older style portable radios also had better trim and finish than this one. I live in southern California and can get AM DX station from the midwest but they fade in and out and an external anntena just makes static worse. It's much easier listening to stations that are local and AM DX up to 500 miles or so which comes in very strong and clear. I usually use mine just for local FM reception and keep the bass up high to make the radio sound boomy. I have had problems with the battery cover popping off and solved the problem but jamming some foil between the plastic clips on the outside battery cover. The superradio is worth considering if you are looking for a unique radio that is different from current crop of portables with CD and cassete players.

Summary: Real Radio: NOT a boombox
Review: In today's world of shelf system stereos and boomboxes, the radio tuner component is usually an after-thought in system design. As a result, radio reception is generally not a priority, and AM reception is dismal, at best. The Superadio series is just what its name implies: sensitive reception and good sound reproduction. It's not stereo, but the positive aspect of that is that instead of a pair of junk speakers, you have a single good quality unit. Great for kitchen, workroom, garage, etc. A real bargain!

Summary: Great for talk radio fans.
Review: You will hear stations in a whole different way. I get better reception and sound on this radio than my home stereo with an AM antenna. I ordered my radio from Amazon with free shipping and got the radio within 4 days. Free shipping, great price, no sales tax and a great radio made this one of the best purchases I made this year.

Summary: Great Radio!
Review: This is a great radio for getting weak signal stations.
I noticed The GE SuperRadio 3 is superior to all my other portable radios. I am now able to receive weak stations that I could never receive before in my building! My advice buy one while it's available!
