The idea is good but display can’t be seen and it is hard to operate

The Midlands radio I received was obviously a store return or else a refurb. The manual had a crease in it, the cord was not wrapped up neatly, the radio itself had smudges on it, and the antenna had a dent in it. I complained to return it, and promptly got an email apologizing and stating that a replacement could be sent at once. I want the radio, so I agreed, en proviso that I didn’t have to pay a bunch of extra shipping charges for somebody elses screw up. The new one arrived and so far is fine. I like having a radio that I can selectively shut off all kinds of bogus alarms, but here’s the kick. I sent the old one back with a prepaid label, and because it was prepaid and there was no charge, I didn’t get a shipping receipt. Well now Amazon.rip is saying that I owe them for TWO radios since the original one obviously vanished into the ether. Well my experience is that the post office doesn’t lose stuff, but dishonest vendors do every day. Moral of the story: don’t trust the free return, make sure to get extra tracking or insurance or something, or else you could be in my shoes too!!!!

The radio was easy to program. It’s nice to pick up local forecasts. I haven’t had an emergency, yet, so I haven’t tested its emergency warning capability yet. That is our primary reason for purchase.

This small radio has virtually no reception in this area without an external antenna. It is expensive to find this out and pay freight both ways + additional return charges.
