## Description

Stay on top of severe weather and civil emergencies with this compact and portable weather radio from Oregon Scientific. Programmed to receive broadcasts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the radio signals alerts for tornados, hurricanes, and floods. It also communicates alerts for public issues like child abductions, nuclear accidents, and other hazards. The radio is equipped with S.A.M.E. technology to filter out distant broadcasts and target a specific local area of up to seven counties. It receives transmissions 24 hours a day and features both audio and visual signals. Easy to take on the road if necessary, the radio has a travel mode that searches for the strongest signal, and its digital clock includes an alarm. Channel select modes are manual or automatic, and the message levels (statement, watch, warning, and test) can be set to English, French, or Spanish. Fitted with a good-looking silver and black housing, the radio comes with a rechargeable NiMH battery, a belt clip, and a charge cradle. The unit can also run on standard AA batteries, and Oregon Scientific includes a detailed user manual.

Review: Love it! - OMG! This is great! I don't know what the people saying it is difficult to set up are doing, but I just glanced at the directions and had it set up in minutes. Mine stays in the charger base, no trouble at all. (I do have to keep it up where my cats can't get to it, as when the alarm goes off they don't like it and it is very "battable" HA!) I have a Midland and the static is horrible, this one has none, and we live in the "boonies" of W Nebraska. VERY pleased! I know I will like the portable aspect of this, two weeks ago I was working in my garage and didn't even know we were in a tornado alert until I went into the house and got my cell phone and saw that I had gotten a text alert. There were several tornados in my area that day - and my Midland never went off - to be fair to Midland it was working fine before (except for the static). And yes....the codes and channel were set properly. I think you will be pleased w/ this if you purchase it.
Review: Works great, but see new comments - this radio is working great so far. no issues and im getting all the info i need with no problems. Even went off for an evacuation done for a fire north of me. Great unit but the only down fall is the directions. They need to explain things better in this unit. ****UPDATE 2/3/10**** I have been having some issued with the alert not going off for some flood warnings we have experinced this winter. It will go off for the weekly test and that is it. I have contacted the company and worked with them to resolve the issue. They are going to be replacing my unit in a few days.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do you clear the advisory messsages on the screen? Dont see it in the online manual?**
A: Have no idea......my unit is so screwed up...nothing works right

**Q: Is this radio really 9" wide? that seems very wide for a hand held portable weather radio.**
A: No, the radio is 2.5" wide and about 5" long (including the antenna).

**Q: Can this be programmed to receive the NOAA weather reports or is it strictly for alerts? Thanks!**
A: Does both.

**Q: Does this radio have an ear phone jack?**
A: The User's Manual says it has an "External Speaker Jack". It looks like a "standard" ear phone plug will fit, however, I don't know if the jack is of the stereo or mono type.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good basic weather radio
*by S***R on December 29, 2007*

This radio works fine for me. I seem to have a strong signal in my area. The radio indicates signal strength, but it doesn't seem to work well, it either shows full strength or zero, even though it's capable of displaying several intermediate levels. Regardless of the indicated signal strength I can hear the weather statements and receive alarms/alerts with no problem. The LCD display has a pretty limited viewing angle, you have to hold it at just the right angle to view it well. You can't turn off alerts, they time out on their own. I'm not sure how long it takes, but it's many hours. It gets a bit old seeing the Wednesday test scroll across the screen over and over. The rechargeable batteries last 2 or 3 days, with the radio in standby most of the time, and a few minutes of listening to the radio each day. For a trip of any length you will need to bring the charger or switch to regular batteries. These are minor issues, overall I'm happy with it.
