    Excellent emergency WX radio

    Small in size, rugged, includes AM and FM bands in addition to WX band, and its built-in flashlight isn't bad at all. Hand crank to charge is easy to use and the solar cell on top absolutely does charge it. My nearest NWR station is about 20 miles away, reception is clear even without extending the antenna. Its speaker is small so this isn't ideal for music listening but it works quite well for speech. I take this radio with me on camping trips, it's great to have to keep on top of the weather. Well worth the money.
