In addition to playing tapes, the Walkman offers drift-free, digitally synthesized FM stereo and wideband AM, TV (channels 2 to 13), and weather band (channels 1 to 7) reception. The player's automatic volume limiter system (AVLS) maintains an even volume level, guarding against unintended level increases and evening the output of musical passages that vary widely in level. A switch adjusts the sound to accommodate metal-oxide tapes, and Mega Bass produces deep, rich bass tones. Automatic shut-off (in playback mode) extends battery life and helps prevent both mechanical and tape wear by turning off unit at the end of each tape side. Finally, an anti-rolling mechanism maintains stable tape speed to minimize music-distorting "wow and flutter" while the player is in motion. For the radio, 40-station preset memory offers one-button tuning to your choice of seven TV stations, four weather-band stations, 24 FM stations, and five AM stations. An FM local/distant (DX) switch improves reception of fuzzy stations. Supplied MDR-027 over-ear headphones offer wide dynamic range and clear sound, and the unit also comes with a carry case and belt clip. Two AA batteries provide up to 32 hours (maximum, using Sony Alkaline batteries) of continuous tape playback, or up to 40 hours of FM radio reception. ## Features - Stereo cassette Walkman with digital-synthesized FM/AM stereo tuner (with 40 presets) and Mega Bass enhancement - Anti-rolling mechanism minimizes distortion when the Walkman is in motion due to active use - TV and weather band reception let you listen to TV channels 2 to 13 and up-to-the-minute weather - Includes dynamic, over-ear headphones, a belt clip, and a carry case - Up to 32 hours extended battery life on 1 AA battery (tape), 40 hours with radio ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00005NNDF | | Additional Features | Digital Tuner, TV Tuner, Weather Band | | Antenna Location | radio | | Audio Output Mode | Stereo | | Best Sellers Rank | #272,268 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #262 in Portable Cassette Players & Recorders | | Brand | Sony | | Built-In Media | Dynamic, over-ear headphones, belt clip, carry case | | Compatible Devices | Radio | | Customer Reviews | 3.8 3.8 out of 5 stars (128) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00027242578296 | | Hardware Interface | Radio Frequency | | Item Weight | 7.52 ounces | | Manufacturer | Sony | | Mfr Part Number | WM-FX281 | | Model Number | WM-FX281 | | Number of Batteries | 2 AAA batteries required. | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Radio Bands Supported | AM/FM/TV/Weather | | Tuner Type | Digital | | UPC | 490570403231 027242578296 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Voltage | 12 volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Sony - **Compatible Devices:** Radio - **Included Components:** Dynamic, over-ear headphones, belt clip, carry case - **Item Weight:** 7.52 ounces - **Power Source:** Battery Powered - **Radio Bands Supported:** AM/FM/TV/Weather - **Recommended Uses For Product:** radio - **Special Feature:** Digital Tuner, TV Tuner, Weather Band - **Tuner Technology:** Digital - **Voltage:** 12 volts ## Images ![WM-FX281 Cassette Walkman with Digital Tuner | Digital Tuner - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81qA9fjtI4L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Customer Package Type** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: does the wm-fx281 have tape record capabilities?** A: Hi. an owner on, no, this unit doesn't have a recording feature.
