The BUSH 917/3196 radio alarm clock is a small device that can fit next to your bed no matter the available space. Its wire antenna means it doesn't need to be exposed on a top shelf or near a window, as you can hang the antenna in whatever position reaches the best signal without having to openly display the clock.
The clock has a plug that needs to be connected to a mains socket to work. Despite having space for two AAA batteries, the clock won't turn on without its mains cable.
Screen
The clock features an always-on LCD screen set at a comfortable brightness: clear during the day, but not too bright during the night. The red light will likely not bother you even if you prefer to sleep in total darkness (like myself). On-screen indicators show whether the time is AM or PM, as well as whether your alarm will ring as a tune or radio, or if you don't have an alarm set at all.
Alarm
The clock allows you to set two alarms within a span of 24 hours. Alarms will activate daily unless manually disabled. The radio alarm will play the channel and volume you last had playing. There is no way to set a specific station as the alarm outside of playing it as the last channel before going to sleep.
Radio
You can toggle between radio stations, or long-press the toggle button to let the clock automatically search for available signals, saving you testing each station.
