The radio is cheap, much can and just and good works. Even as a hands very fit, especially with external microphone. CD, USB, SDCard, all very capable. For ne real recommendation. For I-Pod, I can say nothing, I do not profitable. After recently reading the manual, most functions are to be understood quickly. But one thing it absolutely can not: Radio! The reception is catastrophic and unstable. In the lowlands that may go in areas with weaker transmitter assembly or several stream valleys the radio is almost useless. Because I long to me violently back my old VW Gamma. So think carefully about what is a arrives itself!
Supplement from 25.9 .: Not at all, the radio's fault ...! The antenna amplifier in the antenna was broken. Since repairing the reception is significantly more stable. Still not a miracle, but no longer a reason not to buy the radio. According workshop happens often - so makes it better than me: Only repair, then scold ;-)
