 Cheap Junk - look elsewhereAug 31, 2009
Had this product for 10 days and it went dead. Don't waste your money.
 Excellent productAug 29, 2009
Amazon had the best price on this weather radio. So we bought them for both our kids, and for our mother-in-law. These weather radios seem to have the best reception of any weather radio we've tried before. Highly recommended!

Buy the Radio Shack brand instead - Midland needs workJul 15, 2009
I have both a Radio Shack brand weather radio model and this Midland WR-100 monster. The Midland has no way to adjust the alert tone, so if you use it in your office, 20 cubicles away co-workers are upset when the radio goes off. You cannot set it to just turn on ONLY the voice by itself - you get the ear-splitting siren too. IF Midland made this so you could have ONLY the voice turn on at a low level, it would be OK. The Radio Shack model has a volume control for the alert tones and a volume control for the audio. The Midland volume control goes up by pushbutton steps, and even the lowest is way too loud. When you push a button, there is an ear-screetching 'beep' - and I have not found a way to turn this annoying feature off. There is a jack labelled "PC" with no instructions how to connect this to your PC. The other jack labelled "EXT. ALERT" could use more information on how to hook it up to various accessories. In addition to a reasonable alert beep level adjustment, this radio could use a "remote speaker jack", as it does not. It does at least have a remote antenna connection, which is a good idea. This radio just needs a lot of improvements, then it will be as good as the Radio Shack brand (NOT this WR-100 radio from Radio Shack, but their own brand radio which has a dark-colored cabinet and many more adjustments.) I feel bad for the people that buy these at their Kroger grocery store and then get home and find out it has problems. For those not getting any alerts, try setting the radio to "ALL FIPS" and then you'll get every warning - if you don't, then yours really is defective. Good luck, but there are better options out there, and I haven't had much luck with Midland on this radio. This is "Not your father's Midland Electronics" Company - I wish it was. Regards, John
Monitor Opinion of receiverJun 16, 2009
Radio itself is quite nice. Display is good, audio output is clear and consice. programming relatively simply..you do need a basic sense of how NOAA S.A.M.E. operations work..to know which decode frequencies are for your area..or you will hear many alerts that don't apply to your area.
