Review on πŸ“» Icstation Digital FM Radio Wireless Receiver Module with LCD Display & DSP PLL 76.0MHz-108.0MHz by Randy Bin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great little FM radio module

I received the Icstation Digital FM Radio Receiver Module and am very happy with its features and performance. It's mostly intuitive, but after reading the manual, which you can view online by scanning the QR code that comes with the device, I found that this module offers some really advanced features. Before reading the manual, I started by connecting the device to a USB power source via the micro USB connector on the module. The display turned on with the FM frequency on the display. The right knob allows you to tune into a radio station, while the left knob controls the volume. I plugged some headphones into the headphone jack and was able to hear the tuned station. There was some static electricity, but I figured it was because I didn't have an antenna. The manual recommends connecting a 75 cm (30 inch) wire to the antenna connector. I connected a 10" cable which I was able to extend later if needed. This eliminated all interference and I started listening to music. The sound quality is very impressive and the clarity is very good. After reading the manual, I found that there are some advanced features that I haven't explored yet, but I'll do it when I have more time.I'll try to find a case for this module and attach a speaker so I can have a standalone portable digital display radio can have Overall I am very impressed and happy with this unit and would recommend it to any beginner or intermediate hobbyist.
