How loud is the volume? We want a radio for a canoe trip that can be heard from canoe to canoe.

Depends on how close you are to the other canoe and how much natural outdoor background noise you will have. Volume is ok but not great. You probably need some kind of booster or bigger radio.

Its good. Small speaker so its like listening to you cell phone but when listening to the weather band it was fine. Depends upon how close the canoes are. Its louder than a cell but has a lot of high end so soud doesnt travel too far. Hope that helps.

Volume is good. I only turn it a quarter turn, but I use it for hiking and hunting.

yes it would be audible but it would not be very loud. this is truly a person speaker. You would want to a bigger speaker for a motorcycle.

Yes. It's loud. Boat and backyard no problem.Keep in mind when portable it takes D batteries. I plan to get rechargeables when spring comes around.

Yes it is loud enough. Hopefully you get a similar to my first. For 25 you are getting a steal!!!

Probably not it didn't drop a ton of sound in our canoe so a boat at any speed will probably drown it out

Loud enough to require you to turn TV or stereo up a bit to hear. Not a big deal

No, it is not LOUD. It is barely adequate. But it is clear enough. I would never buy it again, not at half the price.

Not sure. It is plenty loud for us and I think there is a volume control but we have a quieter engine and full face helmets

No, it isn't loud enough, in fact, the volumen is too weak in any situation. I bought it three months ago and the connection for charge is broken.

It does nothing to the radio volume when directions are given, voice just talks over your music. I'm sure there settings to change this if wanted.

Loud enough, I wouldn't feel comfortable running outside allowable hours in a campground, that's for sure. It's in no way quiet. Not sure about running time, should be inversely proportional to power, which is good for this unit. :-) price is right!

Yes, it has volume (for my needs, I don't know about using it for a loud party). I put tons of songs on my USB stick and it plays them all. My only complaint would be the radio doesn't seem to receive a signal, don't know if it's the unit or if I'm doing something wrong (how hard can it be right). Thanks.

I use my radio on a large lake in northern Minnesota. I think it has good sound ad pretty good reception. It's the best portable radio I have found for my use. This is the second one I have had. They take a beating in the boat and I don't think the moisture does them any good but I have been satisfied with my radio.

If you have the volume set to max then yes its pretty loud having it right behind your ear. Setting the volume down a few clicks did the trick. You and the viewer will still hear it. We took a 5 hour road trip and had no problems.

It could be better honestly. It can't be turned up all the way, higher volume on both the device plugged into the box and on the box itself seems to cause some distortion. But it isn't bad at all. Me and my friends use it out on the river and can generally hear the music pretty well within a reasonable distance.

Not sure. More than enuff for average listening. If I have to crank it up because it is loud in the shop it drains the battery faster. If you don't care about the battery... It is ridiculous!!!!
