This is one sweet little unit June 20, 2010 R. E. McFarlane (Anchorage, AK USA) I was looking for a way to record talk shows while I was at work so I could listen to them after work or on weekends. I also wanted to be able to save certain shows on my computer. This radio is the perfect tool for that purpose. It's easy to record radio shows on the fly by pushing the record button or you can set it up to record on a schedule. I like the fact it saves recordings on a removable SD card and that it runs on C cell batteries so I can listen to my talk shows while exercising, working in the garage, etc. The recordings are very good. In fact, I have my radio set for the lowest bit rate recording and the recordings are virtually indistinguishable from live radio. Of all the electronic do-dads I have bought over the last few years I think this one will get the most use. I highly recommend this radio if you like to listen to radio shows on your own schedule rather than when they are actually on the air.
So close...but...not the answer to recording talk shows. June 16, 2010 rs4425 (Texas) It's worth mentioning to prospective buyers of this unit that it DOES NOT have a user friendly recording interface. In fact, most people familiar with computers will be amazed at just how un-friendly the recording experience is. I purchased with hopes of recording and listening to talk shows- I thought it would be nice to fast forward past the 4 or 5 minutes of promos and advertisements. But, this radio makes that SIMPLE exercise almost impossible. Also, if you listen to say...45 minutes of a recorded program and you have to stop, you can not return to where you left off. You have to FF forever. And, on mine, If I try to rewind, it STICKS and returns to beginning! Very frustrating. I give it three stars because I simply remove the SD card and transfer the recordings to my computer so I can edit using audio software (Audacity). Seems counterproductive, doesn't it?
nice features! TOO BIG!! June 10, 2010 Fady Zaher (New Jersey, USA) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
this one has some nice features, but it is also too big and not that portable!! I am a little dissappointed so I returned it!
Rugged, reliable with excellent reception. May 16, 2010 Jose A. Bittar
I bought this radio because of it's ability to time-record to an SD memory stick. It does that beautifully and does play pre-existing mp3 files you may have on the stick. The case is made of a sturdy plastic, not your regular cheap stuff. Add to that the built in ability to charge Ni-Mh batteries and you have a quality radio that will last. Reception and audio quality are also excellent.
It's expensive, but then you get what you pay for.
