does this retain the preset stations when you replace the batteries?

Yes, and no. If you replace them quick (within 5 - 10 seconds), the presets will stay otherwise they will have to be re-programmed. I have replaced mine about 30 times, I was only too slow once!

for me, yes, and even keeps the time if you replace promptly (off by only the seconds you take to replace), that's my experience.

The remote is actually the ONLY way you can preset radio stations. Because the remote is absolutely necessary for ALL functions I would recommend buying another remote in case the original remote goes bad.

It didn't come with a preset station but I use it on 88.5 and 88.3 because those have the best sound quality for me.

Yes it does...my complaint was that it shipped in the "on " position so the batteries burned out in shipping. But i like this little tuner.

Yes. just plug it in the lighter plug and set the tuner and radio to the clearest station. there is even a memory button so it will remember the station you like the best. you can scan for stations or go through each station manually.

You can select stations on the preset channel buttons and they will not go away simply because you unplug the boom box. You won't go wrong with this boom box, it's great!

According to the manual, the stored frequencies are maintained even with the batteries removed "for a long time". The clock and temperature functions still workwith the batteries removed for several minutes during a simulated battery change....could possibly be much longer. Hope this helps.

Yes - I travel with mine and the batteries keep the time and recording station and time. In other words, anything you have programmed will be saved.

My problem was on the base station. Batteries go into the portable/ hand held unit and the remote sensor. If the hand held gets bumped, it can shift just enough to trigger the use of the batteries.

Sort of. On mine, you can't manually set presets - at least I never found a way to do it. You can set it to scan and auto-define the presets, then make a list of the stations + their preset number. Mine defined about 25 station presets, which I switch between using the remote to enter their number. It's a bit awkward, but it works well enough.

There appears to be some kind of eprom or something that saves pre-sets, but it doesn't last forever. I did lose all my presets when the battery died and I didn't get around to replacing it for a couple days. However, when you take the battery and put it back in, or immediately replace a dead battery, your preset stations are saved.

My receiver isn't chargeable, so I do not know. The station plugs in or uses regular batteries.

No presets. I have had this same radio for at least 15 years. I just got my second radio 2months ago. t me it is well worth the money . also, I wear a hearing aid and it works beautifully. I would highly recommend this radio. it is so convenient because everything is built together....you do not have to carry a disk, that means you have so etching else to keep up with while you are walking, running, cleaning house. with this you just put it on your Heaney, turn it on and go. I hope this answers your concern

I'm not sure about the preset... but your able to put them all on the same channels. I bought two... My friends have older ones. We put them all on the same channels and use them on Cruises. They worked really well.

Unfortantly I haven't used mine in over 8 months. So I can't really recall. But I THINK it did. Nothing elaborate. It did bring the 3 stations I got to like 18 though.

It can be depending on how you use it. Personally, when I'm done using it I remove the batteries and put the device and the batteries in a little sack. But if you tend to use a setting where you want to keep the values you set, then you'll want to keep the batteries in and make sure you have extra batteries with you in case they die (each time you replace the batteries, you'll have to reset the values).

The device remembers the station, so you don't have to reset it every time.As for setting the station without losing the power connection, it was pretty easy for me when I set the station and I never lost power connections. Hope this helps.
