Weather radio in radios

Very good product. The instructions are simple and easy to follow. Severe weather is common in our Ohio area and this radio has helped us to become aware of several situations.

Pros
  • Shortwave radios
Cons
  • Can be retrofitted

Great radio but need a manual

Such a cool radio but difficult to program, same codes, time and date so bring the manual, plus the radio (monitor) is big!

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Negative gift

Slightly disappointed

I was very disappointed with the condition of this item and its packaging when we received it, not to mention that it was poorly packaged which could be the reason for its condition. BUT I gave it 2 stars because it works even though it looks bad. Unfortunately they are no longer made, or at least this particular one is no longer made and we needed one for our building otherwise I probably would have asked for a refund. But if it comes and works, then 2 stars for it.

Pros
  • Radios
Cons
  • Small parts

good radio unless you live in a house with metal walls

I bought a Midland 74200 Digital All Hazard Alert Monitor on 24th November 2003. The instructions for the Midland 74200 Digital All Hazard Alert Monitor are in an appropriate font size for people with normal vision, but may be difficult to read for those with low vision. The display on this weather radio is pretty hard to read and the manufacturers should have considered using an "LED" display. The LED indicators on the front of the device are a nice touch, although they could be brighter. The…
