Review on πŸ“» Retekess TR105 Air Band Radio Receiver - Portable FM AM SW Full Band Radio with CB Receiver and Digital Alarm Speaker by Teresa Diers

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great little radio, smaller than I expected but beware of preset scanning.

When I say smaller than expected it is because the dimensions are wrong in the listing. This picture seems to have been taken from the Retekess product page where they are also wrong in this picture but correct in the other one. According to another picture it's 4.25" x 2.36" x 0.62". I didn't measure but it seems much closer. Still, it's a cute little radio. I don't seem to have a problem with it on the wrong VHF frequency, local weather station on 162.550MHz is pointing right there.I was able to catch WWV at 5.0MHz.Local AM and FM stations sound crisp and clear.Although I know this radio never got a bigger one Can replace SW or FM receivers it's just the thing for an everyday carry radio Functions will NOT allow you to delete unwanted stations from presets At the moment I'm stuck with about 15 stations that are too far away to to hear them clearly or I just don't need the format Other Retekess radios MAY delete presets so this is a big oversight on their part.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • is embarrassing
