Like almost all digital radios, they have memory presets for for AM and FM bands to go to your favorite station. Usually 5 to 10 memory presets for each band. Not this one! You have to manually find your station each time if you want to switch stations. A real drag. I thought the people at Memorex would have figured this out, or maybe they just wanted to save money by deleting this rudimentary feature. So much for station surfing. There are better "complete" clock radios for iPod on the market. Bought mine at Target. I am taking mine back tomorrow. Very disappointed in the product. Memorex product development should caught this one.
