Some difficulties
2 of 2 found this helpful Manual is not native English and somewhat unclear. It needs to be rewritten, and read twice to understand the workings.
I am quite displease by the lack of battery holder/tunnel for the AA batteries. I can see a future problem with leakage into the works. The batteries just lay beside the circuits.
Sound is good, tuning awkward, and memory allocation difficult.
One leftmost button is assigned to "class radio" a slngle FM frequency the user chooses for instant tuning.
Other memories need to be assigned and recorded to M buttons
Display light is based on "time of day," so good luck setting it to GMT, it is supposed to go on (Dimly) with any key presses in local evening.
Memories and time is erased on battery removal. Be warned and write the frequencies down.
Single "alarm" memory,
FM frequencies also go into the low FM bands 75 Mhz and high ones 179.2 Mhz. with starts in repeating presses of the FM button. These will catch (according to manual), TV sound (though obviously only analogue sound, not where TV has been converted to digital). Manual gives frequencies.
Antenna needs an extended wrap of wire for better shortwave reception.
Claims that the microUSB socket will recharge batteries (rechargeable ones), or supply power to the radio from the mains-to-USB cable.
Not bad for price, but not great radio.

Adequate if you change settings over the first week. Lots of "I don't want that" in your customizaion.
Got US maps only, though I live in Canada. US maps don't include Alaska.
annoying. Takes about a week or so to set up and stop the "hey simple-minded" options working.
Even with a manual, you can't imagine how they made these for "other" who can accept the default settings.
Magellan and old Garmins were better.
