For any qualified NOAA weather radio, look for icons "Public Alert" and "All Hazards NOAA Weather Radio" on the unit. The Midland WR120 model currently being sold new in the U.S. in 2025 (per the label on the back of the unit) is the WR120-DSP, with box packaging WR120B. The WR120-DSP includes the "ALERT VOLUME" menu which provides 3 volume levels, low, medium, and high. The switch on the side is labeled "Weather Radio" and you must leave this ON to receive any alert and to manually hear the weather station at all. It comes with an AC/DC 9V adapter and 5 ft power cord. I would rank this radio #1 as a dedicated "set it and forget it" desktop weather radio with S.A.M.E. and customizable alerts. Reception is very location-specific, both in terms of distance from NOAA radio towers and where your place the radio in your house. Press the WEATHER/SNOOZE button to listen to the weather radio. Find a spot in your room and orient your antennna such that the reception has little to no static and the NOAA indicator is solid and doesn't flash. The built-in telescoping antenna may not work well for everyone, it didn't for me. (FYI, the bars on the upper right of the display indicate weather radio volume level, not radio signal reception level.) I was able to improve my reception by plugging a 5-ft RCA cable into the external antenna jack. It acts as a wire antenna. No more flashing NOAA indicator! After you have your radio in a good spot with good reception, I highly recommend you enable the Required Weekly Test confirm your setup and reception. This advisory alert is usually sent twice on Wednesday, around 10am and 6pm. All alerts have a timeframe set by NOAA for how long they are in effect until they expire. In the case for the Required Weekly Test alert, the yellow Advisory LED light will remain lit for several hours and then go out - this is normal, cannot be manually turned off, but will go off after an alert-specific purge time has expired, and allows you to see it (in case you were not home) and review the text (up/down arrows) of all recent alerts that have not yet expired. Note: The user manual on the amazon product page is old and doesn't include this current version. Amazon won't let me post the link to the most current manual.

Small solid radio that makes it the perfect backup for sure. I tried a few other small portable weather alert radios but I came back to one of the pioneers. Midland. The er10vp pulls in the weather station clearly unlike the other brand I tried. I can set this radio down and it continues to pick up the channel I set. I also have the wr120b running 5 plus years now...

Llevo ya poco más de un año con esta radio metereológica y de alerta sísmica, en México la ocupamos principalmente para los temblores. Actualmente me ha funcionado de maravilla, nos ha a avisado de forma oportuna cuando hay un sismo, nos ha permitido salir con tiempo, esta conectada al radio de la CDMX, funciona sin problemas y tiene la opción de usarla conectada o con pilas por lo que si se va la luz puede seguir funcionando.

Everyone asks me, do I need a hand crank radio for emergencies? The answer is always, yes. The next question is usually, which one should I get, and the answer to that is a rabbit hole that I usually avoid. My answer is simple now. 1. Get a radio that works on standard batteries and replaceable rechargeable batteries that can be hand cranked or charged via solar or USB power bank 2. Make sure it has WX alert on weather bands (not one you can just hear the weather continuously) This unit manages to support all of this. My other answer is to get a ham radio that has WX alert that you can charge or use a battery bank if you have to. This radio can be crank charged, charged via solar, and uses replaceable rechargeable batteries. You can also use AA batteries. You can tune into AM/FM radio stations, and NOAA weather channels (1-7 or by frequency). It has a light that can do SOS in morse code. And it has some ultrasonic dog whistle feature which doesn't work on mine (I have access to ultrasonic and subsonic audio detector and it picked up nothing above 20kHz and nothing under 20Hz. My tester can go all the way up to 100kHz, and I also have tested this Midland radio with trained animals (for search and rescue) to listen for ultrasonic audio between 20kHz all the way up to 100kHz, and the dogs did nothing. I have another device that generates 50-100kHz and the dogs went wild. So my ultrasonic dog whistle on this radio is defective. Oh well, most of you will not be able to test this feature as the testing equipment is in the many thousands of dollars, and access to dogs that are trained to hear these frequencies are not easy. And at the end of the day, I don't know if I will ever use this feature (maybe I should have bought the ER210 without the dog whistle feature.) At any rate, this is an awesome emergency radio, picks up stations very well, and the one thing I care about the most is NOAA weather alerts. The volume is loud enough and controlling the radio is as simple as can be. It seems rugged enough but I am not testing to see if I can really beat it up. The solar panel on top (takes a while to get a bit of radio time) and the crank works too (but takes a lot of cranking for it to power the radio for a very short time). I have also charged it using my battery bank and that works well. As for charging a phone with this? You can, but it's silly since this has a 2600mAh battery and you can drain that quickly charging an iPhone or Android device. I would use a dedicated power bank for that. But you absolutely can charge your phone with this. I bought a case for this which is also available on Amazon and it is a very nice case. In an emergency I would like to have this nearby, although it is a bit bulky for my emergency or go bag (my ham radio is less than a quarter of this size and it has WX alert). But if you have one in your car that you charge on a constant basis, this will be great to have on hand. You will still need a way to communicate, but that is what a cell phone (provided there is cell service) or a ham radio is for (especially a portable QRP radio that can do HF with minimal antenna like an EFHW or a long wire.) Last but not least, this is good to just have at home or in a remote location. At home, it would be better to have one that is plugged in that is topping off rechargeable batteries that back the radio when the power is out. Midland makes one that I would love to try one day that even has an alerting mechanism you can place under a pillow. So $70 for this radio is a bit expensive, especially with the defective ultrasonic dog whistle, and that is the only reason why I gave it 4 stars (the price and the defective whistle). For $60 this may be worth buying, or just get the ER210 for $50. It's a good radio so either this (ER310) or the ER210 will do. I hope this helps.
