  • Notes
  • This compact FM‑only radio uses an electronic auto‑scan tuning system with SCAN and RESET buttons and a side‑mounted volume control. The design originates from open‑mould tooling used by several OEM factories in southern China during the 2000s. Identical or near‑identical units were sold under numerous promotional and private‑label names, often without any brand markings.

    Possibly uses a ​one‑chip FM receiver IC (usually the CD9088, CXA1691, or similar).
