Intempo Digital DAB radio
Mine is blue rather than black but the works are the same.

I wanted a portable for use outside and this fills the bill just a few niggles.
The batteries don't last long (high power rechargeables)and are hard to insert.
The "tuning" dial is very fiddly - No good at all if you have large fingers or problems with your hands.
The electronic volume control is stepped and can be difficult to set at the level you want.

The sound is quite good for a unit of this size and it comes with the mains adaptor.

I am satified with the radio but would not buy another of this design

Do yourself a favour - DO NOT BUY!!!
Very disappointed with this DAB. Like others, i will be returning this for the PURE ONE DAB - which for £10- £15 more seems a much better piece of equipment..

Don't buy this if you want to listen to radio indoors...
What is good about this radio? Well, it looks nice... which is why I bought it.

Its shortcomings are many though.

Sat beside my Pure Evoke-2, I set both of them to scan for stations. Both sets scanned 33 stations BUT, when you come try listening to them, the Pure can tune all 33 stations but the Intempo can only tune 1. So the tuner in it is rubbish.

The Pure Evoke 2 will work anywhere in my home and garden, whereas the Intempo only tunes a variety of stations outdoors.

I suppose this poor reception does neatly get you round the fact that the tune/select dial is so badly designed that it is practically impossible to get the station you want!

The volume buttons only offer you a limited range of preset levels - and it is very annoying to be unable to get the listening level that I want.

The speaker isn't very good, making the radio sound cheap.

Battery life is much shorter than a mw/lw/fm radio, so it is not very useful as a portable.

In terms of value-for money, it is poor. If I'd been able to try it before I bought it, I'd have bought something else.

What is most disappointing of all, however, are the obviously fake glowing reviews here, no doubt placed by Intempo themselves... don't be fooled - I really suggest that you try one of these before you hand over any money.
