0ur opinion:

:
Midland is a world leader in wireless two-way and weather/hazard alert radios, with an extensive line of land mobile radios, CB, GMRS and FRS radios, MURS radios, weather-monitor alert radios, itinerant radios and a line of quality antennas and accessories.

:
Stay up to date on all the latest weather, hazard, and civil emergency information with the Midland WR-100B monitor. Capable of receiving seven National 0ceanic & Atmospheric Association (N0AA) channels--each of which receives emergency advisories on tornadoes, floods, severe thunderstorms, civil danger warnings, and more--the WR-100B is a must for people who live in high-risk weather areas, such as the Southeast or Midwest. Plus, the seven N0AA channels offer coverage for roughly 93 percent of the U.S., so most people are well covered regardless of where they live.

Another valuable function is the monitor's Specific Area Message Encoding (SAME) reception. SAME allows users to program the radio to sound an alert only when weather and other emergencies threaten a selected county or counties. The technology eliminates all alerts from other areas, so users won't have to perk up their ears each time the alert sounds only to find the emergency is actually 100 miles up the highway. ln addition, the WR-100B's memory system accepts up to 25 counties, so you can monitor a broad swatch of counties at once or restrict it to one.

Should an alert occur, users have a choice of three warning systems: a 90 dB siren, a voice alert, or a flashing red LED light. The siren is the best option for people with larger homes or who aren't always near the monitor, while the latter two options work well for smaller homes. Additional features include a clock with an alarm and a snooze button, an emergency power backup that keeps your radio working during power outages or outdoor use, and external antenna and alert jacks.

The WR-100B, which works with three AA batteries (not included), measures 5.12 by 2 by 6.25 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a one-year warranty.

Buyer's feedback: - * Bought three, one works!! ...
In November 2006, I ordered 3 of these as Christmas gifts. Within six months, one was not working. I was able to send it back because it was still under warranty. Shortly after the warranty period was over, another one quit working. Only one of the three originals are still working. I am very disappointed with this product.

Buyer's feedback: - Perfect
Great value and easy to set up. Has been dead on with every storm that entered my preprogramed area.

Buyer's feedback: - * The Box Who Cries Wolf ...
This is partly my own fault for not researching more, but I was shocked to learn that this has no way of filtering the events it screams at you about. I only wanted this to tell me when there was a tornado warning: a thunderstorm watch or a high wind advisory is not worth waking me up at 3am for.

My advice: spend more and get something that only alerts you for things that matter.

Buyer's feedback: - Good little radio
This is a good, dependable, basic weather/hazard radio. It was easy to set up and can monitor several counties. This is good if you live near the border of one or more counties. The directions do a good job of helping you find the codes for the counties you need. It does use batteries as a backup. This model, however, cannot delete watches, so you will hear every watch or warning given out, at any time of the day or night.

The radio can be set to use one of three types of alert modes: siren, voice, and red flashing light. Since the flashing light won't wake anyone in the night, your choices are siren or voice. You cannot adjust the volume, so be prepared to be jolted out of your sleep if a watch or warning is given during the night. There is also an alarm setting on the radio if you wish to use it for this purpose.

You can review any watches or warnings given while you were out by pressing a button on the machine. Anytime you wish to hear the current weather, you just push a button and you will be connected to the weather station for your area.

Buyer's feedback: - * Weather radio ...
This item was recommended by a ham radio operator, who works with the hurricane center in Miami during storms. He bought one at Publix for $30. I found this one on Amazon for $30 and free shipping. What a bargain! It was easy to set up, and now we're waiting for a big storm to test it out. Wait, please, no big storms!
