Thank you for purchasing the Albrecht DR860 digital radio. We have developed a radio that focuses on the essential basic functions needed for digital radio enjoyment, making it very easy to use. The radio is intuitive for anyone using the controls or the included remote control to operate. In addition, the design on the screen has been completely revised. By reducing the display to the really relevant information, these can now be displayed even larger and clearer.
