Yes it is back-lit as long as you are tuning or pressing any of the buttons, hands off the light goes off in about 4 seconds.

Some of the other answers below may be polite answers, but they are also incorrect. The Tecsun PL-606 FM Stereo/MW/SW DSP Receiver has a digital screen, but it does not have the ability to light up in the dark whether or not you push any of the buttons and/or rotate the dial.

Yes, depending on how you set it up by the instructions, you can have the display either "on" or off. In the "on" mode, as you move either the tuner or volume control or press keys, it lights up. However, the individual KEYS are not back lit, and this is a minus. Amazingly though , I have not found back-lit keys on ANY radio, but I think also that this would be a GREAT feature to have.

No. To save on battery power, it only lights when buttons are pressed. I prefer to have even THAT option disabled. I have flashlights to supply power during outages. If you'd like to get one, go here; http://lightsngear.com

No the screen is not back-lit, but why do you need it in a power outage? Just push the on button and rotate the dial to find the station you want to listen to. After all it is a radio meant for the ears.
