Amazon.com Product Description
Stay alert to conditions that affect you with Midland's WR-300 weather/all-hazard radio. The unit offers S.A.M.E. technology (Specific Area Message Encoding), which preprograms the device to receive only those warnings that apply to your local area--you can choose state, county, and/or nearby counties. The single-speaker radio offers 30 programmable county codes, AM/FM tuning, date, time, alarm functions, and even auto switch from AM/FM to pertinent all-hazard alerts.

For tuning, the radio employs drift-free PLL (phase-lock loop) technology and an easy-to-read blue, backlit LCD. You get a convenient, 10-alert memory, and you can add, edit, and remove unwanted alerts at any time. The radio uses the supplied AC power adapter or four AA Batteries (not included).

What's in the Box
Radio, AC power adapter, and a user's manual.

5 out of 5 stars Easy To Setup And Use   July 26, 2008
This radio works great and was easy to setup. It has already proved its usefulness as an alert radio by giving us warnings and watches for current weather conditions. The AM/FM radio works great too and has the expected features. I would purchase this product again or give as a gift!


4 out of 5 stars Great Safety Radio   July 25, 2008
I purchased this weather radio for use at the store that I work in. We have lots of computers and wireless equipment to run the store, so finding a radio that had good reception was difficult. After reading reviews of the Midland radios, I bought this one and we haven't been disappointed.

The technology here allows us to filter the warnings so that we only hear announcements for our county and only the watches/warnings that we choose to hear about. Living on a lakeshore county, this is important because Special Marine Warnings are issued frequently.

My only desire for this radio is that when the alert is issued and the siren goes off on the radio, it should turn on the weather radio after the siren has gone off for 5 seconds or so. My radio at home (an older Radio Shack model) does this and it's nice because if we're in the other room, we can just mute the TV and hear what is going on, rather than having to walk back to the bedroom and look at the screen. That feature would make it perfect, but it's still a great radio without that.



5 out of 5 stars no problems what so ever   July 24, 2008
Bought this due to wife is terrified of tornado warnings. We are not in a tornado prevelant area but we have had them touch down. Very easy to program and works great. Do follow the directions and it is a snap.
Only con is if off your AC power it goes through a set of AA batteries pretty quick.

This product is great for people who live in areas where alert sirens are not available, or easy to hear. Easy to program and use. Alerts can be specific to your needs so that you don't have to hear all alerts for all surrounding areas and conditions. We now know when a severe thunderstorm or tornado is approaching.

Easy to program, compact size, allows you to listen to alerts in your area. We now have 2 radios in our family. This one was purchased for another family member.
