   I'm going to show you some of the quirks and features of this 2009 RadioShack 12-519 All-Hazards Weather Clock Radio, and then we're going to take it on the road and see how it drives.

     Have you seen present day alarm clocks? Absolute pieces of shit. You could crumple them in your hand, the radios, if it has one, is weaksauce as fuck, little wimpy alarms, the cheapest display possible, and they STILL don't do anything but remember the time IF it has battery back up at all. And they sound like absolute trash.

     That's the way things should still be made. 😀

     My RadioShack one isn't going to replace a HiFi system by any stretch of the imagination, but it's listenable. Clear voice, and decent enough acoustics to serve as background music.
