Is this digital? Is it easy enough for a 90yo to use once programmed?

It handles analogue broadcasts like FM radio. It does not handle digital broadcasts. Once programedit activates by just turning it on.

Yes it is very simple to program. My daughter &I; bought two of them for her husband's pickup truck. We programmed them in just a few minutes.

Yes, we used one big initial on each button as my dad has very low vision. Was not difficult to set up or program.

There is no programming- it's simply digital and easy to operate- choose "heat - off - or cool" and set the desired temperature - that's it! Easy and simple!

Yes! I am a middle aged non techy person and I was able to get this figured out quickly! I love it so much. I even figured out how to download music to it and I use this almost every day. The clip feature is the best, especially when working out. I would definitely say it's easy to use.

Yes, it is very quick and easy..when i programmed mine i did have to push a button on the old key fob even though it didnt work as well, but it was a success.

Yes it is digital. You update the unit on your computer before you use it the first time, put in your zip code, and it will find all the channels you want to listen to in your area. You can also purchase separate equipment that will continually locate your position as you travel and automatically update the frequencies for the area you are in. I like my unit, but keep in mind Uniden will try and squeeze every penny they possibly can out of you. Their customer loyalty is poor.

I honestly have no idea. I am not really a techie guru type guy. At age 66, I keep things simple and so don't experiment or try anything beyond "normal" every day basic. Sorry I could not be of more help. :-(

I'm not sure this is the timer for you. It sounds like you are looking for a count-down type timer and this really isn't designed for that. This is made to turn things on and off at certain times and I really don't think you will be happy trying to use it as a count-down. I don't know mutch about the digital timers but believe a digital might be your best bet.

I got a manual with mine. It works well. Programming it with the remote is tedious at best but you can plug it into your computer for initial programming.

Not sure. Just read the manual and it didn't mention anything about digital.

Same time. Don't every lose the directions or you'll never figure out the programming. It's awful. But the device has worked fine for a few years after getting it programmed.

it depends Russell. Some states have gone digital and with this one since living in the state of Virginia. I can listen to almost anything until they go digital. This is a analog scanner and it does have great features. But if you really want to invest in a scanner, go digital. They cost more, but in the long run it may be best. Check your state to see what type of frequencies they uses, digital or analog.

I programmed mine manually I looked up my codes online then put them in. It was very easy once I started. Took less than 30 minutes.

I've never used the programing thing for it. I'm a plug and play guy. But I have read that it's alot easier to program if you have it. I do all the programing by the the one button. Cheaper that way too. But if you got the money it is the way to go. I deal with a lot of head ache with mine.

Yes I found it very easy to use and I am 78 so hopefully your mother will cope too.
