GE Model 7-4691 "Fidelity I" AM-FM Clock Radio Found today

[Captainclock]

Yeah, this radio is analog tuned with a backlit analog tuning dial, but the clock display is blue. and I wouldn't be surprised if this wasn't considered one of their superadios.

Close, but I believe that GE used the term only for the three portables:

Your clock radio may have the same receiver chip as three portables, but likely does not have the added circuitry that made these radios truly "super". If it does not have the "Superadio" logo, it is not considered a superadio.

OK, I wasn't sure, but it is definitely a very impressive performer though.

There is also a Super Radio with cassette deck. I dont have one but
have the other 3 models. IMHO the SR1 is best.
I dont think this is a TRF set, the sales sticker would make a big deal
about that. Everyone claims good reception.....

Congrats on having the three models! I agree the first was likely the best.

I have one of the first models that doesn't have the external antenna terminals. I have two, that have. They are alike, otherwise. Only one speaker, no tweeter.

I think I did find one of the GE Superadios today at Goodwill, one of the ones with the tape player and its a stereo Boombox from the early 1980s, it doesn't say "Superadio" on it anywhere but it does seem to have the chip inside for the tuner that the Superadios had and it has excellent reception, and it also has a few options like the Superadios have like an Oscillator switch and a Stereo Accent Switch. Its a Model 3-5253A.
