There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
We had a series of severe storms here last April in the State, and all of them after dark, some after midnight. The TV signal of course was interrupted, so we lost the local news station that had been broadcasting watches and warnings. We are just far enough out of town that the tornado siren is nearly impossible to hear if you are inside the house with the windows closed. The last thing I heard before loss of TV signal was ..'if you live in ____, (our town) take cover now. That was enough for me, and we spent an hour in the safe room waiting for the worst to pass. Apparently the siren in town went, and the all clear, but we didn't hear that where we are.
I wasn't terribly concerned with how the unit looked, when I started hunting for a replacement. I wanted one that would allow me to edit out the dreck, for example the avalanche warning is of little use to me in land as flat as this. I wanted to be able to select a siren volume that wouldn't be heart stopping in the middle of the night, and a radio that would allow me to get warnings and/or watches for a select group of counties, mainly in the direction we get storms from, the Southwest.
I did a lot of research, and sifted through quite a lot of websites, types of radios of many makers, and reviews before settling on this radio. And it's perfect! Does all the things I was hoping to have, has an excellent ordinary radio, and allowed me to set levels, counties and sirens exactly where I wanted them.
In the first week after setting it up, we had a day where a series of storms blew through, and this little beauty performed like a trooper. It flashes, and the alarm comes on low and builds up in volume, but not to the point it's irritating. Gets your attention without deafening you. The NOAA weather message plays through once, and shuts of. The light flashes as long as the warning is in place. We had further warnings, three on the same afternoon, and each time it came on, did it's thing, and shut off. And although one thing I wasn't concerned about was what the radio looked like, I found I really like the style. It's easy to read, easy to set, hefty, and well put together.
All in all I am well satisfied and I think I did very well using the Amazon gift cards I was given at Christmas.
