Review on Radio Emergency Operated Portable Reception Transistor by Lisa Davis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It works. the best in personal radios

I don't know what else to say. Plug in the batteries and it finds all the AM, FM and weather bands I've checked and I'd listen even in the event of a zombie apocalypse. Compact with decent sound quality. I won't be using it for a house party, but if I find myself under the rubble of a house after being hit by a tornado and want to know if it really was a tornado, I'm sure I can use this radio to find out . My first complaint is that the rechargeable AA batteries I used felt thicker than regular AA batteries and the battery cover was difficult to close and didn't feel as smooth as if I had used regular AA batteries. My second complaint is that the LED still shows the time when it's off. Which annoys me a bit, but since I didn't do too much research before buying, I'm not deducting a star. I was able to use it without a guide, so I'm pretty sure I'm only giving away 50% of what I can. It is also worth mentioning that I was able to receive stations without extending the antenna. I was afraid of going out my eye, so I left it for the time of the test. It also seems quite durable. I checked him right after opening the box when he slipped out of the package (the opening of the package was upside down), tried to catch him but instead he hit the table, hit the back of a wooden chair, fell into the soft seat, he thought he was sitting on the seat. But this did not happen, he jumped and hit the edge of the table, hit the nearest leg of the chair and then landed on the tiled floor. face down. Cursing, I picked it up, put in the batteries (the lid didn't close tightly, see above), quarreled a bit longer, set the time on the radio, switched it on, decided not to extend the antenna despite everything that happened ( again, see above), was able to find all the stations, tested most of what I could think of, with no instructions, felt better, turned off (time still visible. see above. damn), but back in the box to keep until it was used, accidentally dropped box, cursed, reopened, still works!
