 WR300 weather radioNov 16, 2009
Works ok and replaces both my old weather radio and am/fm radio in one package. Changing weather channels is clumsy, you have to go into a programming mode and then it won't turn off for about 20 seconds but then turns itself off after about that long on the new channel. I agree with another review complaining about the loud beep every time you press any button.

Programming local stations doesn't appear to be affective to date. Only has three FM stations that can be programmed. Maybe we haven't spent enough time reading all the instructions but you certainly can't just take it out of the box and have the weather functions operational.
 A Piece of JunkNov 12, 2009
I purchased this radio after my Radio Shack weather radio died after 18 mos. of use. It is much easier to use. The radio reception stinks. The weather broadcast for our county originates in our town. Yet, the Midland radio cannot receive it clearly. Midland told me to try an external antenna. It made no difference. They then had me send it back for warranty repair. They sent me a new unit that is no better than the first. I NEVER had a reception problem with my Radio Shack radio. Save yourself the headaches and buy something else.
 Keep informed with this radioNov 11, 2009
As a weather radio, this radio is a great gadget to have. I have had this for a few months now, and it has proved to be invaluable during severe weather. On more than one occasion the local evening weather report stated that there would not be storms in my area during the night. The radio woke us up with news of impending severe weather coming into my county. It was great to be forewarned. The only negative thing that I have to say about this radio is that the digital clock is hard to read. I would prefer larger numbers and more of a backlight contrast. It does offer a night light option that makes the clock much easier to read, but it is too bright in the room for my taste.
 Weather Report for the Midland Weather RadioNov 09, 2009
Radio does what it claims to do. I can get access to all the info via my ham radio gear, but this is quicker and a more dedicated system so its more efficient and doesn't take up a lot of room on a desk or shelf. It seems to be well worth the price. And, if you want a bright night light for the evening hours, leave the blue display on all the time. It lights up a large area.
