Review on Oregon Scientific WR102 All Hazard Radio - Portable with S.A.M.E. Technology (Discontinued by Manufacturer) by Kevin Abner

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great but not easy to use

This radio is the most sensitive weather radio I have ever used. It picks up weak signals with ease and has excellent sound quality. However, the controls are unnecessarily complex and unintuitive. For example, to change a channel, you don't just press the channel button - you press and hold the channel button for two seconds, wait for the light to start flashing, and then press the up and down buttons to select the channel you want. .In general, it is highly recommended, but it is necessary to carefully read the instruction manual to perform even the simplest operations. (How to turn the radio on and off!)

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires outlet
