The only problem with this approach is that AM and FM radio bands differ
from country to country. For example, in Japan, the FM band runs from
76-90MHz, eliminating 75 percent of the U.S. FM spectrum.
This makes it a non-starter for me, because one of the reasons I would want
a (battery-powered) boombox would be to take it on vacations to the beach,
where I like to listen to (and record) local radio.
There are _very_ few, if any, DC-powered foreign boomboxes with "wide
spectrum" radio coverage (usually called "tourist models"). Grrrrrrrr.
For more info on boomboxes, see the MCP table at:

Unfortunately, information on DC power options is sketchy at best.
