Advantages: Alarm gets me out of bed every morning Disadvantages: Build quality and design don't look the best.
..., and the alarm had never failed to wake her.
It has to be said that the design of the Oregon RM 313 is a case of substance winning over style. It's certainly not the best looking alarm clock around, being quite squat and bulbous and with a curved screen design that is in keeping with the rest of the clock but really adds nothing aesthetically. It may be that the versions available in other colours than the silver one I have are more attractive, but as the whole point of having an alarm clock for when you're sleeping, maybe that doesn't matter too much anyway.

In order for us to assist you further, can you please confirm that you have selected the subtitles on the set top box receiver to "ON".
The Sony RM-V202T does not have a button for the subtitles to come on, so therefore unfortunately this will not be possible for you to do.
I apologise for the inconvenience this reply may cause to you.

So there you have it, if you ever need to watch the telly with no sound (someone on the phone, baby can't sleep),. or you are a bit deaf, this is not the zapper for you. If you expect products to do the job and decent customer service, don't go to the sony website!!
And our other sony products are so nice, too....
