Won't turn on with short wave radios

Bought this good value radio and got many five star reviews. Unfortunately the radio I received would not turn on with fresh batteries. Thank you Revain for a great return policy.

Pros
  • Quick change
Cons
  • Almost never

Purchase with reservation

Good - with one major shortcoming - tuning borders on impossible - no permanent tuning - ie. If you press the very small tuning buttons, it will skip to the next station it finds and then stop completely. For example, if you want to switch continuously from the bottom end of the FM band to the top end of the band, ie scroll, then you'd better have plenty of time. It's better to learn how to use your save preferences.

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Hard to say

Good for radio especially for AM

I just searched am radio very good. It's difficult or practically impossible to access local sports on your phone without paying a certain price. So I just took a small radio. The AM and FM radio stations work without any problems. I don't know much about shortwave radio, but I haven't really given six different channels with hundreds of frequencies a chance. But the ones I looked at I get no reception. Do not purchase this for this purpose unless you know how to use shortwave radio or are…

Pros
  • shines
Cons
  • There are problems
