radio alarm

Wake-up music device

A radio alarm is an alarm clock that wakes you with radio programming instead of a buzzer or tone.

The user sets a station and volume the night before, and the radio switches on at the designated time.

Most radio alarms offer both options: I keep the buzzer as backup in case the radio doesn't wake me.
