ALL FM stations in the US are on odd multiples of 0.1 MHz. For example, 88.1, 88.3, 88.5, .... 107.9. So a receiver made to work with the US system (such as this one) should not get the even multiples (88.2, 88.4, etc.). Your radio is working exactly as it should.

No, but some stations do not transmit in HD, and most situations will require you to tune your radio to a clear channel to pick up the hd radio, which kind of makes it annoying when you want the RDS on the dash display, not just the handheld visteon tuner part.

Very limited channels depending on market. Only 4 in kansas city. Regret I boughr it

I will try here but it would be best if you had the instructions. Tune in the station you want. Press and hold ENTER for 2 seconds. When it displays ENETER PRESET NUMBER press PRESET + or - to select the present number, then press ENTER.

We try to pick different colors for the same order, but you are not able to choose them through the web. The radio is the 2.4 gHz system, so there are no "frequencies" to worry about anymore (Yay!)

I do not recall if this radio was able to be programmed for preset stations. See ratings for this radio!

You sure can! It sounds great you have to match the cars tuner to the number on the device, i picked 94.3 because there isnt many stations near 94' s in my area. Pick something lower near that area makes it sound better!

You can set up to 15 presets (10 FM and 5 AM) via bands 1 thru 3. And or you can replace any preset or just scan to a new frequency to listen to. Scanning to a new frequency will NOT change any preset, unless you you choose to do so by pressing a button to change a preset. In fact you can scan all you want to new station frequencies without changing a single preset that you previously set today, yesterday, last week...

Though I have not used this machine for radio setting, I just tested mine after reading your question. I preset several stations,turned it off, also unplugged and tested to see if the preset stations came back, and both times it did. Maybe I am lucky.

There is a small, built-in wheel for tuning. I experienced a problem with mine though. The tuning wheel got stuck after the first month of purchasing his product. I would recommend buying a different radio.

In my experience that shouldn't be happening. I was always able to pick a station on the FM band, match it on the digital readout, and pipe my iPhone through the car speakers. On intuition rather than science, I picked low powered stations (88.7 or 90.2 for example) rather than powerhouses and had good fidelity.

I used a different FM Transmitter, but I'm pretty sure they all have the same concept to them. Ans yes, it needs to be on a certain channel. Your radio and Transmitter have to be on the same # to the decimal.

Since I've only listened to FM,I had not listened to any AM stations, but tried a bit since you inquired. I was able to pull in AM stations, but I'm not well versed on AM stations in my area my test wasn't very satisfactory. I did bring in some and they were ok. Hope someone else can respond to this issue better than I've been able to. I do really really like my Sangean PR-D9W radio. I compared and conducted quite a lengthy research marathon before purchasing. Good luck!

Yes. Mine is incredibly finicky. The FM is so sensitive that it takes me a few min to tune stations. The AM is rock solid. I do think it needs to be fixed though, it shouldn't be that hard to tune in a station like the one I'm trying to get. I have a Sangean digital radio and it gets everything just fine.

No, you can not. Despite their claims, you can not listen to the stations of your choice. The stations must provide the proper MP3 format, and many have other formats, if any. This item sits here on my desk, unused and unusable for the purpose I was lead to believe it would fulfill.

My be but don't know IPod classic and ipad 2 owner. You can't get the hidden stations on things like the IPod Classic like in my case 99.9 KTDY jams all FM stations form 99.5 FM to 100.4 FM. The IOS devices will get to tune into thing's like 100.0 FM with the App so I will only get the mane station the only one that analog radios can get.

No. This radio, whether tuned by dial or direct entry, can tune only to 29999 kHz, which is the top of the HF bands. Both services that you mentioned are in the VHF portion of the radio spectrum.

Howdy.I've got a question regarding your experience of recording digital over the air broadcasts with the dr560. Have you been able to program the machine to record stations that are not whole numbers, like 6, 12 and so on? We've got local stations that are sending multiple signals and designating them by adding a hypen and a number, like 13-1, 13-2 and so on. I'm considering buying a dr560 but won't if I can't record these stations. Thanks for your input.

My experience with cheap digital radios (and this is not an expensive such) is that they're often about 0.1 MHz off in one direction or another, so (to use your example) 92.3 or 92.1 would probably serve to get 92.2 unless there were another station very close to the better choice. And, for what it's worth, the Grundig/Eton digital radio I've bought had the 0.1MHz mesh you appear to want, though this is far from a guaranty. I'm sorry I can't be of more assistance.
