Yes programming is easy.But NO mute button on remote...but LOVE this radio I give it a 9 rating!!

Yes to both questions. It is very lightweight and we use it outdoors during the spring and summer

You can set "presets" for both am and fm stations. By holding down the "power" on the remote, the radio will turn off.

You need to change stations manually and there is no mute button on the remote. This is mainly for someone looking for a alarm clock.

You can. It turns off when you plug it in but you can turn it back on immediately. The only thing I don't like about this radio is how easily the knob pops off. I recommend gluing it on as soon as you open the box.

You can turn it off on the remote receiver. There is a switch that can change the alert tone or turn the receiver off.

Yes. You can program the radios in simplex mode. With the transmit and receive as the same frequency.

there is an on-off function on the setup menu. But why deprive yourself of hearing how crazy you sound when you sing along with the radio? ;)

You can program the offsets from the radio. But using either Chirp software or the Baofeng software and cable is a lot easier. Chirp Software available here http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Home. For a few dollars more the Baofeng UV-5R is a better radio. Note the UV-5R series has different variants of the Radio. They are only different cosmetically the insides are all the same. So if you get one. Search for one with the lowest price. Should not be more than $35-$38.

You can best operate the radio with the software (SDR Sharp). I havent even used the remote to be honest.

No - there are no presets - you tune to the station of interest. Still a cute radio though.

No. You can program up to 5 different remotes, AS I RECALL, which would be all different remotes with different remote codes. The other thing I remember is they did suggest purging out any old remote codes, which is done by entering the new remote code as many times as needed to purge that old one out. I admit I didn't follow this advice, mainly because it is tricky enough to program a new remote once, let alone three or four more times. Don't let that scare you off from programing a remote. I just had to write all the steps down in MS Word, and print them out, and just go for it. In the end, it was all over in a few minutes - and it worked! Ha Ha!

Yes - you must use the remote for all functions except turning off or on. (If you've already selected CD or FM then the off/on/vol button will engage that.)

I do not recall if this radio was able to be programmed for preset stations. See ratings for this radio!

Not sure, my radio didn't come with a remote, never thought to ask if I could purchase one. You might want to ask Amazon.....

I do not know but I wish Bose would also put controls on the radio that could be used without a remote.

The remote is actually the ONLY way you can preset radio stations. Because the remote is absolutely necessary for ALL functions I would recommend buying another remote in case the original remote goes bad.
