I do hope, however, the power does not go out during an alert. I have to say, in all the years I've had this clock radio, I haven't tried the weather alert yet. Since we now live in Georgia, I plan on giving it a try. I've had my Sony ICF-C153V for about 5 years now. Also if the power goes out, you have to redo the time, the alarm clock setting and preset radio stations, and that could be avoided if there was battery backup. I've had no trouble with it. It's a nice radio/alarm clock. My only complaint is the same point another reviewer made: it needs battery backup.
Also like the compact size of it. It was a hit and something she won't outgrown in a year or two. This was a gift for my granddaughter who is 8. She loves it because shewanted her own alarm clock and now she can get stations she couldn't get onher radio too.
I would do business with this vendor again. This is a great clock radio at a good price. The vendor delivered before the due date and in the condition described.
The only improvement would be a little more volume but it's fine for a closed room. I needed a new radio for my barn and this one is perfect: it is small, has preset buttons making it easy to change stations, it has am/fm, tv and weather - all features I was delighted to find in one unit. The fidelity is more than fine for this application.
Forgot about not being able to get the tv part of it after Febr of next year. So, of course, I bought another one almost identical to it. Until that time, I would give it 4 stars. I had one of these for years and liked it. I LISTEN to TV to go to sleep.
