Q: How loud is it? Can you compare it to an actual noise that it sounds like... TY!!!
A: If you are talking about the ever-present electrical hum — it’s low but constantly there and annoying. I could hear it from anywhere in the bedroom. Otherwise I liked everything about the clock—it simplicity, small size, decent reception, mellow orange color time display (with 2 brightness levels) that on low didn’t light up the bedroom at night. But sadly, because of the constant hum, I returned it. Tried 2 different clocks in case it was a fluke. But it happened with both.
Q: What color lights are the numbers? Red, green or yellow?
A: A very pleasant muted orange.
