Review: Reliable, basic radio. - This is the PERFECT radio for your emergency kit. Simple, easy to use (my wife doesn't like my digital tuning radios, as they often get stuck with a lock feature on or some other feature that impedes tuning.) Yet, this is DSP-based, and it locks right on to signals. The flashlight is just an added convenient bonus. With something this simple, there's so little to go wrong - and when the power is out or you're stuck in the blizzards we get here in the higher elevations (7500ft +) in Colorado, you want something that just works. This radio just works, and I anticipate it will for the next 20 years. At the price, it can't be beat. Perfect for the job. It's not high-fidelity, but that's not the idea. A basic, good radio - with reception LIGHT YEARS better than the cheap chinese cracker jack toy types. As a 20-year plus Extra level HAM operator, this is hands down one of the best receiving AM/FM tuners I've had for the price. If you want something equivalent in a more high-end radio, prepare to spend $150 for a C. Crane or Sangean. $20 bucks for this AND it has weather band? Come on. Get several, and always be prepared.
Review: Great little AM/FM/SW radio - I was looking for a small quality radio to use in emergency situations. It sounds great and appears to be high quality. It takes 3 D size batteries. It does not come with a AC power cord. Bought one from desertcart for $4. But of course in an emergency, you would not need this. Happy with this radio and you will be too.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this plug in?**
A: It will plug in if you buy the adapter separately.  I wouldn't buy this, mine quit working after about 2 months and the company wouldn't stand behind their product. Just a waste of money.

**Q: Those lt have a good bass**
A: It has a single monaural speaker and it's of a decent size, so it's a lot less tinny than a smaller radio would have, but there is no substitute for size if you want really good bass.

**Q: What adapter goes with this so I can plug it in?**
A: Mine came with an adapter. Kaito AD500

**Q: Can I use the AC adapter with the 3 size batteries installed?**
A: I only use it on AM with batteries I have a AC adapter if I use the AC adapter ( the one I have it is unusable the RF noise makes it unusable, It does not cause a problem on other bands I have tried).  I   would not expect a problem with both batteries and a problem.  I have no idea if the batteries were rechargeable if they would be recharged when a battery and AC supply is connected.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ You may need some glue but…..
*by F***Z on October 1, 2024*

First, the dislike: the clear plastic facing that display the stations came off during shipping. It still had the adhesive so I stuck it back on, fell off an hour later. The tuning knob has came off twice. I’ll have to get some super glue to keep those pieces down. The good part: having it for one day I like it. For the price it has good clear sound and goes a decent volume. I didn’t have a problem tuning into stations. I use 3x d batteries which give it some nice but not heavy weight. You can also use an adapter but that is a separate purchase. Overall it is a nice radio and does what it needs to do. Good for Camping, office, backyard, garage, etc
