Unique Simultaneously Monitor Multiple Channel/Station Alerts (in Standby) with EOM Detection, Reecom R-200 Same NOAA Weather Alert Radio (Green)

I chose this weather radio because I have three weather radio stations covering my county, and only get marginal reception on all 3 channels. I always had to have 3 weather radios running to make sure I didn't miss an alert. This weather radio has the capability to monitor up to all 7 weather radio channels, if one weather radio station is down, or out of service.. It can receive a 2nd, 3rd, 4th.. and up to 6 other channels. I didn't notice much more difference with higher sensitivity, or better reception than the other weather radios I have. I ran the radio for several months, and it has never missed an alert. Reecom does seem like a company that is difficult to get a hold of. Nobody answers their listed phone number, and nobody responds to emails when I had a question prior to ordering the product. Even though this weather radio was pricey, it did the job and no longer need to have multiple weather radios running. I gave it 4 stars because of the high price for the product you get. Its probably priced $40.00 too high.. but the product works, and does a fantastic job. Programming is about the same as any other weather radio out there.

It was a nice idea, and Reecom's other Weather Alert Radios are great. However, this one has horrible receive. It's pointless to monitor multiple frequencies at once when the receiver can't even pick up a single frequency. Tested it right at home where all my other desktop models easily pick up two different NOAA Broadcasts, and my police scanner can pick up four different NOAA broadcasts. This one barely could pick up even one with the antenna fully extended.
