FM Does have stereo, but this radio is not stereo equipped.Mono only,but in both ears when using headphones.Not the best headphone experience compared to other radios in this price range.Signal distortion in anything above half volume no matter what headphones I use.You are better off just using the speaker on this one unless you just like listening to music at lower volumes.

is this radio digital or analog?

It is analog in the sense of having a traditional tuning dial and pointer instead of digital tuning, but it has a DSP (Digital Signal Processing) chip in it that impacts the way it tunes. (There is a degree of muting of static as you tune, and you have to tune it fairly slowly to find the weak stations.) If you like the feel of a regular non-DSP analog tuner in a radio of roughly the same price and size as this one, check out the Sony ICF-P26.

is this radio digital or analog?

Analog dial and no apparent step tuning.As of July 2021,the ka230 is NOT a DSP radio.Things may change so you might want to contact the manufacturer.

does it have an external speaker

1.5" speaker.Sounds slightly better than the kaito ka200.Not quite as good as the Sony ICF-P26,but close.The ka230 is perfect for talk radio or sports.Get a Sangean sr-35 for great FM music sound.
