    If you think about it, the radios almost sound like an orchestra. It’s like an F seventh chord. The 1050 hz tome is a C and the advisory sound is moving between F and E-flat.

    Was thinking about getting one of these for my portable use. I’m going to be driving between my home and a college that’s max 1hr 30min commute away from home, and I wanna have something like one of these to have tuned to multiple locations for watches and warnings, all the stupid apps on my phone usually forget to warn me when there’s anything going on in other areas. The area where the college is got a tornado warning a while ago, and I’m thinking of getting one of these to have with me in my car. Thanks for the vid, I like the sound of these radios and they seem like a good size. Hopefully it’s not a confusing setup like all the reviews mention!!!

      The setup is very easy, but these things chew through batteries, I'd recommend getting one that advertises itself as portable (unless you can plug the AC adapter into your car)
