Portable Radio Tiross TS-458 — AM/FM Receiver, Battery or Mains Powered

The Tiross TS-458 is a compact portable radio receiver that supports AM and FM frequency bands. Designed for both home and mobile use, it can be powered from mains supply or batteries, providing flexibility when access to a power outlet is limited. The receiver features manual tuning, an integrated loudspeaker for immediate playback, and a simple control layout focused on basic radio listening tasks such as news, music and emergency broadcasts.

Advantages

The TS-458 offers dual power options — mains or battery operation — which enables uninterrupted listening during power outages or while traveling. Manual tuning provides direct, tactile frequency control for precise station selection.

How to use

Connect the radio to the mains supply or insert the required batteries, then turn the power on using the power control. Select the desired band (AM or FM) and rotate the manual tuning dial to locate and fine-tune radio stations. Adjust the volume control to a comfortable listening level. Position the unit for best reception; in FM mode this normally means placing the radio near a window or extending any integrated antenna if available. For battery operation, check and replace batteries as needed to maintain reliable performance.

Usage recommendations

For best reception, switch between AM and FM bands depending on the broadcast type and position the radio to minimise obstructions. Use mains power for extended listening sessions and batteries for temporary or mobile use. Store the device in a dry place and remove batteries if the radio will be unused for extended periods to prevent corrosion.
