 Rating:  - good, inexpensive weather radioThis isn't the fanciest weather radio in the world, but it is inexpensive and very portable. There is sometimes some static on the broadcast, but I'm pretty sure that is coming from the broadcast itself and not being caused by the radio, since my last weather radio sounded about the same. There are a couple things to keep in mind about the "alert" feature, if you are buying it for that. 1) It will drain your batteries while it is in the alert mode, and you won't know when you run out - so ...

Sound quality isn't "great", but reception was reliable and understandable, size is very small and packable and the radio just got the job done. I would buy it again. Rating:  - weather radionWhile the size is nice, the durability is suspect. The back side sliding battery door pin broke and now the panel won't stay on. The reception is poor and very scratchy. I would suggest you forget this model and buy a home unit with battery backup that allows it to become portable. Rating:  - mixed feelingsIt is lightweight, can be attached to belt or waist band. I prefer a stronger signal, with a louder warning alarm. I had bought a pocket size weather alert radio from Radio Shack a fair number of yrs ago which shames this Midland hands down. With the current technology I don't know why Midland didn't make a better product. My 2 cents; If you live in Tornado Alley, do not depend on this as your only weather alert radio, esp. for home. It's ok for the field -better than nothing (altho better to ... Read More |
