Review on Sony ICF C153V Reception Discontinued Manufacturer by Scott Walsh

This clock radio has many good features like 5 radio buttons, 3-position brightness control and small size that makes it easy to fit in my bedside table. The reception is good in my area. This allows me to set the clock instead of having to set it automatically from the remote transmitter like other clock radios do. We have had wall clocks set up this way for about 2 years and are often changed an hour or two early or late. I wouldn't recommend setting your watch this way if you rely on it to wake you up. They are advertised with 2 alarms but they are actually one for the radio and one for the buzzer. It doesn't have two clock radios, which is what I wanted. My biggest complaint is that it's too wide for me to fit without accidentally pressing a button or buttons on the side. One of these buttons is used for brightness control and the other for daylight saving time. Today I woke up an hour earlier again because I didn't realize the time was wrong. I've tried taping the button but can't keep it from being pushed through the tape.
