About NOAA Weather Radio
Overall Feedback:
72% positive
83% appreciated the antenna length and design, while 17% struggled
When pulled out, the antenna extends to 13.5 inches.
My antenna design is different from most antennas of this type as it doesn't rotate 360 degrees.
74% were impressed with the portability, yet 26% faced challenges
I want a portable radio that is battery operated, lightweight, and has a weather band for the hurricane season in FL.
I faced a problem with rotary dials when placing it in my pocket or bike pack while listening.
83% liked the frequency range, but 17% didn't
Automatic tuning picks up on radio frequency signals, but sometimes the actual voice/music signal can be slightly off where I can't get that part. Manual tuning can fine tune in on the voice/music part I want.
I am unable to receive WB signals on my small unit because the closest NOAA transmitter to my home is at the limits of the recommended weather radio range.
83% were satisfied with display and controls, whereas 17% weren't
I faced a problem with the rotary dials while placing it into a pocket or bike pack while listening. The dials are easy to bump, causing static between stations or changing the volume.
78% found connectivity options easy, but 22% faced issues
On all three bands, the radio picks up well and it is important to get news, info, and weather updates.
It's easy to bump the dials and hear static between stations or have the volume dial down or up.
