can I drive a small external speaker from the earphone jack?

Yes, if your speaker has aux function and 3.5mm aux cord, you can play it in external speaker. Sincerely, PRUNUS

How is its am fm reception?

Reception is great, like a giraffe, it has a super long antenna.

Will transistor radio still work inside a backpack?

Yes, this radio will play inside your backpack if turned on as you walk around unless you're down inside a bunker, then it may be hard to pick up most stations. The J-166 is a good cheap radio that has good sound.

I searched online. Here is description: DSP (Digital Signal Processing) technology has forever changed the portable receiver market in so many positive ways: It’s made portable radios more affordable for consumers
