Dedicated remote buttons for changing stations? Can I press some UP and DOWN buttons on the remote and it will change stations (in Favorites for example) so I don't have to go and look at menus and select it each time?

I just tried it and it didn't work. But if you just press favorites, it brings them up. Also "last listened" brings up the last 10 stations.

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.

Yes, you can switch between current devices that are turned on and change preferred device. So lets say you have a game console which only comes on when you're using it, you can,set that as preferred so when you turn it on it overrides the other devices and the input switches to the game when its turned on, when it goes off it will automatically revert back to the device you were last using. It has a button on the front of the device OR you can use the remote to scroll through all devices that are currently on and plugged up to it. Its super simple, not as complex as I am making it oit to be, but by far one of the best things I've ever purchased, for the price its an EXTREMELY good buy.

Yes it does. If you hold down the menu button for a couple seconds, the display will change to a radio station. It gives you the option to program a few of your favorite stations as well.

Yes. It has a remote contro but i dont love it. For radio presets you have to click thru each one, theres no option to go directly to the station you want.

You can program the On/Off buttons to control all devices from the main menu. Each device you set up has the On/Off buttons programmed for that device as long as you have selected that device. For example, from the main menu I press power and my tv, surround and satellite all turn on, but not my bluray. I don't use it as often and don't want it on unless I specify. When I select bluray and press on, it comes on.Sometimes my satellite turns off by itself if I'm watching a DVD. I can turn it on by selecting tv from the main menu and then pressing the On button. This does not affect any device programmed to respond to the main menu In/Off buttons. You can program the On/Off buttons to control all devices from the main menu.

It usually switches to the newest active input. Whatever you use the majority of the time, put that in one. It will switch to two, three or four when you turn those on. It's universally programmable or has a small remote you can keep with all the others. No problems.

Hi. The radio face is not lighted, so selecting a preset in the dark might take a lot of familiarity with the buttons. I have never tried to do it. The preset feature is confusing to me. [Personally, I don't know why the radio thinks it needs 2000 of them.] In answer to your question about having to push more than one button in order to switch presets...I have to. However, I might have made a mistake when selecting the station. I hope this helps! Dick

It will certainly allow you to change the input to the radio and band and shut down any other components not needed for the radio. Then, within the device menu, you can go to receiver and setup preset stations. It's not as easy as setting up preset TV stations, that appear automatically in TV mode.

The Presets are for your favorites most used. You can 'store" a much larger amount under the "menu" in categories you create like "country" or whatever you like, through the radio's web interface. Then retrieve them with the menu. Not "one button" but you can save many, many stations! I did a longer review under "carlyle tech" at www.i1430.com, look for the one dated March 10th. We're a streaming station and one that I had to put in manually and it worked GREAT.

No. The biggest, but no only issue is when you press the CH (channel) control it changes the input source. You suddenly get channel not available, press input and your no long on the Dish Sat TV setting. Change it back, try again, it always does it. Guide button doesn't work. Try to change channel by entering the channel number, doesn't work and that's odd. I had high hopes but was very disappointed. I've never found one that does everything its suppose to.

How easy to change stations? Easy. With only two knobs volume and tune plus an am/fm switch you can reach all three with the headset on. Thus you listen for the stations as it locks on the next one instead of taking the headset off to look at the dial or find tiny buttons. It is a good receiver circuit and as simple as you can get to tune. I put some pen marks on the knob locations of my favorite stations so I could pre tune it before putting it on and just "listen tuned" from there. My last brand faded when I turned my head this one does not - that is the most importtant thing not tuning since you probably will stay on your favorite station anyway. How easy to change stations?

This product comes with four stations... so the question you're asking is maybe for another product. However, I would venture to say: "no, you cannot add one". In the picture you see 4 buttons on each device at top right. These program the device based on location. So as we have 4 I don't see how adding a 5th device will create a 5th location. You would have to program 2 locations on the same button.... Might work.

Yes, you just change it to the one that you want. This remote actually works better than the one that came with my system!

Yes. Step through the three stations with the button on the left and toggle the button on the right on or off.

Hi Kristen, it doesn't automatically change the radio station. In all reality, I wouldn't recommend this product though. When it did work, it worked well, but it stopped working after a measly 2 weeks of use. Just shut off and that was that. I didn't get another one so I only have experience from using one product, but that's my two cents.

I just experimented with pushing the various buttons on the remote. I am not sure if it is possible to automatically set it to move through all the settings on its own.
