Programming is simple and easy, the push-button and dial controls are solid feeling, and it's a nice, compact size that fits on a shelf. All in all, it's everything they said it was, and more! We'll see if it's still playing in 30 years! Does it have a wall-wart? If so, whats the voltage output? Just curious... Thanks...

Is that some distant relative of Wal-Mart? ;-) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"

Yes, it comes with the 110 adaptor. It also runs on C-cell batteries, if desired. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"

Thats called a "wall-wart", ie. it sticks out from the wall... Have you noticed the voltage labeled on it? That would be 4.5 volts using the batteries only... Thanks...

Does it have some number of user programmable/pushbutton selectable AM and FM stations, in addition to the five air bands? (Sorry, I haven't found a clear statement on this point -- clear to me anyway -- from a quick look at the online description at Sporty's web page.)

and FM stations, in addition to the five air bands? Nope -- the 5 presets are all for the air band. I guess they figure you'll have the AM/FM radio set to a specific station (which you tune digitally with up and down arrows), and have no need for AM/FM presets. In practice, I have found this to be true. I leave it tuned to NPR, and let it scan the aviation bands. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"
