AM/FM set up for office

Hello,
I work in an large office building where the reception is not so good. Would like to get suggestions for something ??? that accommodates AM/FM selection via memory presets.
Should have headphone jack with volume control. Speakers not required. Ideally this unit would be some what compact but have strong reception and decent sound quality. External antena could assist if unit accommodates this.
Note, prefer not to spend additional money for XM/Sirus.
Thanks

Although Music Hall once had their name on these the Sangean is the same model. It has impressive sound (better than Tivoli's) and a very good tuner,aux input & headphone jack (stereo). For the price it's a steal.

I own one of these:

And it sounds great on analog or HD signals.

If you have internet access at your office, either wired or wireless, you could stream music using a Logitec Squeezebox Boom. I don't think that big brother would be able to monitor it's use and you would have access to such services as Pandora, Rhapsody, internet radio and Sirius/XM. It sounds pretty good for a table top radio. I use one in my kitchen and bedroom.

Don't underestimate Big Bro! At my company, "He" blocks all streaming non-business sites, unless specifically exempt. I think they use a Websense system.

But would Sirius be a good idea? Is their signal robust inside? what are reception requirements?
