4.0 out of 5 stars Functional Weather Radio!, September 14, 2007

By	A. Stagg (Virginia, USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)

Overall, this radio works as advertised. It's solidly built. Comes with a very nice cradle and AC adapter. The radio COULD be difficult for some people to set up if they are not comfortable with electronics (or reading directions). Reception is clear in our house and the weather alerts certainly can roll you out of bed when they go off in the middle of the night. I was looking for a weather radio with SAME technology that could also sit on my dresser. This fit the bill perfectly. The backlight is also bright and the display is clear. The red alert light (it's normally green) is not as bright as it should be and should be more prominent. However, only a minor complaint and it's worth the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Weather Radio for RV, September 30, 2007

By	Glen R. Fotre "glenf" (Prescott Valley, AZ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Having owned several Oregon Scientific products, I expected perfection with this weather radio and it works as expected. It has more 'bells & whistles' than I needed, but I'll just ignore them. My old Weatheralert only had 3 chanels and finally died so this one was welcome. It does recieve NOAA warnings in my area, a problem that evidently some purchasers of the previous model 103NX had.
