Great features for all around radio
931195
Great features for what I wanted in a radio only gripe is it doesn't seem to transmit as well as I'd like it to do. I have an old cheap walkie talkie that seems to do better, but that's not a dig that radio does better than most handhelds. Reception seems to be good and quality is good. I guess I was just hoping for a better radio than I had.

Heavier than anticipated.  Needs adjustment for tone - more treble required for my ears.  Excellent reception both AM and FM.  Digital tuning makes it a little tedious to go up or down the bands.  Only 5 station presets for Each frequency band - could use more say another button which gives you five more on each band.  Tuning button features easy use of presets so you don't have to push the chrome buttons on the front face.  The station selector buttons, volume adjust and tuner adjust all have a high quality feel to them - nothing cheap.  The light showing the station goes off after a few seconds - good feature to save power.

There are many reviews about this radio and lots of information on the internet. I'll be brief.

Fit and finish are very good. It's robustly constructed with thick plastic case. Keys have firm feel and you hear a click as key is pressed. Battery engages firmly and smoothly. Unit slips snugly into charging base but requires several (like 8) hours to fully charge. Battery life is good. Buy a second battery when you order this as they are very reasonably priced. Display is pleasing and bright indoors, but is difficult to read in bright sunlight. Transmitted and received audio is crisp and clean. Unit feels good (but not great) in your hand.

There is third party software that adds many features to this radio and tremendously improves its value. You will be doing yourself a disservice by not using the third part software.

I bought this radio for AM and FM DXing after reading a review on it at "www.radiojayallen.com". I absolutely love it. To me. this is the new Superadio! The audio is excellent with plenty of bass and treble on tap so you don't always have to have the bass and treble controls maxed out. This is one of the few radios I own that picks up all my local FM stations with zero static, despite (or maybe because of) the shorty whip. The MW DX is superb as well, and I have had some astonishing daytime DX receptions.

What is not mentioned in the reviews, or shown clearly in the photos, is the way the radio flares out at the base. The 2 rows of D cell batteries, instead of being placed one row on top of the other up/down, has the batteries instead side by side at the bottom of the radio. This results in the base being extended out the width of a D cell from the top and middle of the radio. I really like the looks of the radio this way. Also, it provides a considerable amount of stability to the radio such that it is almost impossible to accidentally tip it over. The overall construction is very solid and high quality; there is nothing that feels cheap, or screams "crap" at you when you hold the radio.

Another feature not advertised is that this radio is capable of self-alignment. It is shown in the manual under the trouble shooting section for the question as to what to do if there is a drop in volume when tuning in a station. To realign the radio, when tuned to any AM station, press and hold the "Display Clock and Frequency" button until the weather alert LED starts flashing (top left on front of radio). At this point, release the "Display Clock and Frequency" button, then give it a short press. Leave the radio alone while it auto aligns. mine takes about 5 minutes to do. You are always assured of razor sharp alignment with this feature, no matter how old the radio.

While I do not listen to the 2 meter ham band, the weather channels are a welcome addition.

This has turned out to be my favorite radio in a very short time. It is well worth the price.

Great bang for the buck. For $50 this radio is jam packed with features and channels. Lots of receiver options are nice for various applications.

Would really recommend getting an upgraded receiver (FS-iA6B is great) for use in a race quad. The receiver it comes with (FS-iA6) does not support ibus functionality, so you are forced to run the wires for each channel as well as power/ground.

For those new in the hobby, ibus and sbus allow the receiver to talk to the flight controller with only 3 wires. Signal, power and ground. Makes builds much cleaner and easier to wire.

Got 2 FS-A8S receivers for my micro quads and an FS-iA6B for my race quad.

Excellent radio. Very sensitive, good selectivity easy to tune and I love the BFO. Good looking, well designed and easy to use. I however have no idea how to use the memory but, I don't use memories so it is not a loss to me. I really like the big display, rechargeable batteries and compact size. Good price and some great features. I chose the 600 over the 660 just based upon price and I am happy with it. A good travel radio. My only complaint has little to do with this radio specifically, the sound quality, I really wish there were better quality speakers used. I'd would pay a few dollars more for better sound from small radios.

I own a Boston Acoustics Recepter radio and think it's fantastic. I use the Recepter at my bedside and have no complaints about it. When I needed a new radio for my kitchen, I started with the Recepter as the base product and asked what other features I'd want. I came up with three: auxiliary input (which now is included in the Recepter); headphone jack; and remote control. That led me to the Sangean WR-2. I did not want to give up the digital tuner of the Recepter or the the strong tonal quality. The Sangean has those features, plus the additional three I wanted.

When the price dropped recently, I sprung for the Sangean WR-2 and I'm glad I did.

The tuner works very well on both AM and FM. The remote is simple to operate. The auxiliary input function works well with my iPod. The radio data display is a plus, as is the tone adjustment function. I know there have been complaints about the complexity of the alarm system. Since this unit is in my kitchen, it won't be a problem for me.

The sound quality is comparable to, perhaps not quite as good as, the Recepter's. The black case is beautiful and could be displayed in any room.

My only reservation is that the display is a little less elegant than I would like, but I'm sure I will adjust. This is an extremely well designed radio and I'd be hard-pressed to ask it to do anything it doesn't do. And I paid less than I would have paid for a new Recepter.

This has great features including the ability to hook up to an external antenna.  Prior to adding an external antenna it worked ok, but I had some reception problems.  I liked the idea of using it as a handheld outside the vehicle BUT I have yet to do that with it.
The unit has good volume.  Space in a Jeep is limited so I love that this is so small.  The channel lock is another great feature.  It eliminates accidental channel changes while bouncing around.

Of the many radios that I reviewed this one seemed to be the most promising.  It has more that met my expectations with great sound and ease of use.  It pulls in many stations and one in particular that I had been unable to tune in with any consistency. It looks nice and has a nice array of features.

I love this radio. I has tons of features and options. It is the perfect first radio and an upgrade from the uv-5r. I hit repeaters 30+ miles from my house. Would highly recommend buying a programming cable and using chirp. I had no issues with the cheap baofeng cable. This certainly feels like a sturdy radio, and I've dropped it a few times, but this radio is cheap for a reason; I do not expect it to be water resistant at all or take a big fall. The dual monitor and transmit is not something that is common especially on cheap radios and is awesome.  The scanning is relatively slow. You can also listen to FM radio, and your other bands will automatically cut in once a signal is received, which is cool if you are waiting around for someone. The speaker itself is also very loud, which I though was unnecessary until I was in a noisy environment. The earpiece is nice enough, and I've worn it for hours at a time at events.

*UPDATE*
I've used the radio quite a bit and I am still impressed. I successfully hit a repeater over 90 miles away on the stock antenna. My only issue is the battery indicator is not very good. It will stay at full bars for awhile, and once it looses a bar you might have 3 more hours, or you might 20 mins. Sometimes it doesn't even make it to one bar, the battery just dies. A little frustrating so just keep the battery topped off or buy an extra one. I still believe this is one of the best handhelds for under $150.

Great overall features - USB and AUX input were a must...even has hidden CD player behind the removable faceplate. Good value for such a low price; if you are looking for a top end product you won't get it here, but you can't complain for under $60 - it does everything I need it to...much more than the OEM radio.

Great features in a moderately price VHF radio. The GPS is able to pick up a signal inside the cabin. Good sound quality.

The last small radio I bought must have been 20 years ago (before buying boom-boxes and combo radio/CD players). But I wanted a digital tuning AM/FM with decent battery life and OK sound. This radio is all that (as testified to by the many good reviews here). The re-chargeable battery feature is a big plus since they are re-charged right in the radio. The controls are straight-forward and you'll be up and running within minutes.

Lots of really neat features on this receiver. You can download the app for your phone and control it that way as well. the two zones are nice, and add Bluetooth, wireless, odyssey, and quick select options makes it really shine.

This little radio comes with a nice case, "earbud" style earphones, batteries and a clear, concise manual.
Performance-wise, the radio does wonderfully.  It successfully picks up all of the strong  shortwave stations (i.e., BBC World Service, Radio Canada International,  Swiss Radio International) and many of the weaker ones.  When an antenna  wire was added, performance improved as one would expect.
The clock and  alarm features are an added bonus.  I personally didn't think I would use  them, however, they are remarkably useful.  The wake-up alarm ("Human  Wake System", as named in the documentation,) works very well.  In  addition, having a world clock comes in handy when listening to world band  radio.  I leave mine set to G.M.T. (UTC) so that both my local time and UTC  time is displayed -- very useful for world band listening.
I would  recommend this radio to anyone who needs a portable world band radio for  casual listening.  For more serious listening, like "DXing", you  may want to look at Grundig's other products.

Radio has a nice deep bass sound.  The two alarms are nice and I really like how the face turns so you can have the radio horizontal or vertical.  Listening to an external device is superb.  Love the touch screen face and the light sensitive display.  Only complaint is the weak antenna that needs to be draped around the room.
