Rockin' Roberts Radio

Advantages: everything but pricce
Disadvantages: price

...I was given this clock radio for my birthday and I wasn't too sure about it because I didn't feel like I needed it. Now I've moved house though into a smaller (much smaller room) this compact beauty is really coming into its own! It basically is a small black and silver device with a large lit up (you can dim/turn off the light) analogue clock on tthe front. The whole thing is about 8 inches tall and it is what I would describe as "squat" hence it fits into my small room perfectly. I really wish I had discovered this beauty earlier as it is ace and has loads of good features. The backlight on the clock perhaps a little bright, but the dimmer setting is excellent for sleepy sleeps time so this isn't really a problem. The radio is good quality. Roberts is a brilliant and well-established brand for radios and this is one of their DAB...

Review of Roberts DAB Gemini 33 Radio

Roberts Gemini 3 Portable DAB/FM Radio

Advantages: Excellent reception, audio quality
Disadvantages: Expensive

...but I was put -off by a lack of external aerial socket and the RDS/Radiotext on FM that the Portal 2 had. In the end, and with the prospect of some birthday money I decided to buy the Roberts Gemini 3 radio. The Roberts Gemini 3 Well after parting with just short of £140 at Argos it was back home to give my new radio a go and put it through its paces. I unboxed the radio and found a standard figure of 8 mains lead and a well written book of instructions. The radio itself unlike the many retro look models around looks a nice modern styling with a sloped control panel and display. The display is backlit green and is continuous on the mains but lit for a short time after a button press on batteries. I extended the telescopic aerial and pressed the autotune button, not the radio did a thorough scan of the DAB band 3 radio band, finding...

Review of Roberts Gemini 3 DAB Radio

Tesco DAB 123 The Cheapest Digital Radio Alarm I Could Find

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Poor Build Quality

...Introduction:- I first saw this radio when I was looking for a DAB Radio Alarm Clock for the cheapest price possible. I was not too worried about style or even having the best quality as the only time I ever use a radio of my own at home is to wake myself up as I find it far less abrubt than having a buzzer going off right next to my head. This was eventually the radio I settled on at just £17.95 and I now have mixed feelings a few months after having brought it. I ordered the radio on-line and when it arrived with me the first thing that struck me after taking it out of the box was how small the radio was (8x15x10cm). I was dubious as to whether this was a good thing or not but then considering the price I paid for it I wasn't too worried so took it upstairs to where I planned to be using it to try it out. Installation & First Use...
