You can turn off the sound and only listen when you want to. I really like this weather radio. The directions made it easy to set up and it is very simple to use. Just don't forget to put the batteries in when you first set it up or when the power goes off you will be scrambling to find some like I did. We tried another brand before this one and never could figure out how to program it, so we really appreciated this one.
I set it to our local weather station and get an up to date weather report at the touch of a button. The radio was just as described and the directions for operating it were easy to understand. I haven't had an alert yet, but so far I am very satisfied with it. I have it set up so that the radio turns on when there is a weather alert in my area. You can also set it to sound an alarm if you prefer.
It was fantastic - while it worked. I particularly appreciated being able to choose which alerts I wanted to receive. BUT for the third time recently I have noticed that the LED no longer lights up when there are alerts/warnings/watches matching the ones I have set it up to indicate. So I have to presume that something has gone wrong inside it, and it is now useless.
We have had this for about two months and it really works great. Already been useful during two major thunderstorms.the alerts are great.
This radio worked perfectly right out of the box. Setup was easy. The radio has already warned us of flash flooding, severe thunderstorms, and possible tornadoes. Since I live in tornado alley it's important to get accurate and early warning of storms.
