⏰ Sangean RCR-22 Atomic Clock Radio: FM-RDS/AM/Aux-in Digital Tuning, Silver, One Size - Ultimate Timekeeping Experience Review

August 28th 2019When I replaced the AM.FM clock radio that we had for over 10 years this SANGEAN RCR-22 unit didn't last 4 years before the speakers disappeared and all that we receive, static. I used it for our weather first, but we also have a standard AM/FM DVD/CD radio and it works well. So, the loudspeakers in this device are either cheap or defective at the start. FIND QUALITY PRODUCTS TODAY - ALL CHEAP RUBBISH FROM CHINA, TIWANI OR INDIA. BUT WE STILL PAY SO MUCH FOR THIS SHIT ----- MORE

I don't know why people hate this watch. This thing was easy to set up! You must be a complete idiot if you find this simple interface complicated. The atomic function set the time/date in a minute while the alarm was set in seconds. The instruction manual was easy to read, the display is easy to read and fully dimmable, and the radio sounds very good and loud for a clock radio. This radio has many features that you simply will not find in a store bought watch. I'm just not a fan of the humane…

Read all reviews before buying. I replaced old clock radios that didn't have battery backup. I chose this model and after 2 uses I am very satisfied. The key here is knowing how to set it up! I'm also a radio amateur, so I can receive WWV on many frequencies (on my radios) that are used to synchronize atomic clocks around the country. It is broadcast on 2.5, 5, 10, 15, or 20 MHz from NIST in Colorado. You may be in an area where it is difficult to receive WWV on this radio (didn't check what…

This radio is advertised as an atomic clock radio. No, that is not so. For those who don't know, an atomic clock is a clock capable of receiving a signal that is broadcast as a radio signal from a transmitter in Boulder, Colorado. This signal has the current time and date tracked by an atomic clock. The idea is that the radio receives this signal several times a day so the time on the watch is always current and accurate so you never have to set it. This watch is NOT receiving a signal. I had…

I have another Sangean portable radio so when I needed a new clock radio I decided on this one. I only gave four stars because it's difficult to set up. There are so many buttons and gizmos here that it takes a while to figure out how to use them. But don't let that stop you. These are excellent clock radios. Here's what I like: - I'm very sensitive to light and I like to sleep in a dark room. At the very bottom of the device is a dial that allows you to turn off the light on the radio. When…

The Daylight Saving Time controls on this device do not work properly. For background, when the United States observes Daylight Saving Time (DST), the NIST WWVB standard atomic time radio broadcast reports that fact every hour in its rather complex time code. What should happen next: If the clock that controls Daylight Saving Time is on, then the clock will advance the time by one hour when WWVB says Daylight Saving Time is in effect. If the user has turned off daylight saving time, the clock…

At the time of writing this I have owned the RCR-22 for more than two months. Today, our product range is limited to a select set based on an ignorant, indiscriminate public that dictates worldly choices to those of us who know what we want. Every now and then something comes to mind that makes me say; "Where did it come from?" When I looked at the clock radios available I wasn't thrilled as far as what I wanted and what I could find. Nowadays every product is the same or even worse. They are…

This is the third Sangean I've bought from Revain and I've also tried the Ocean and even tried hooking up an internet connected Yamaha receiver to use as a clock radio. They sent everything back except the RCR-22. That doesn't mean I'm happy with it, it just means that my 23 year old Timex round watch eventually broke and hence my reluctant acceptance of the RCR-22. Sangean makes a very solid radio in terms of build quality. The quality is probably one of the best on the market. But they really
