Im pleased with the radio size and quality. The AM/FMchannels work well.clear. the aviation channels work well if you are close enough to the airport . If you purchase this do yourself a favour and throw out the earpiece that comes with it. Cheap set!! Disappointing. I replaced them with a Sony pair from Best Buy for around $35. Amazing diference in the radio opeeation. Night and day !!!

As with any interface that a has limited number of interface buttons, they are required to multitask. Itll take some getting used to but works well. I like the button lock feature that holds your settings while jostling in your pocket. Its a great handsfree option while on the go and busy

Weightless device loaded with features Probably could be designed to fit into ear buds Did not know it was speakerless when I bought it I wanted it to play at my desk as the airport traffic pattern is above it but without speakers I threw it in my drawer I don’t like wires

The squelch is either on or off with the airband mode. When it is off there is a large amount of annoying static but when it is on reception is practically nil. AM/FM work fine. Small and lightweight.

The earbud wiring acts as the antenna.
Per the manufacturer: The battery life is 4-1/2 hours of reception time on a full charge. This assumes you are not changing the channels. When you change the channel, the backlight comes on briefly, which speeds up the battery consumption a little bit. FWIW, the charging time is ~2 hours.
This has 16 channels / frequencies.
