Review: Great Radio! - After Hurricane Helene hit the east coast, I had to go in my garage to pull out a big bulky radio (that used several D batteries) to get information when our power was out for days. With this, I'm much more prepared! It's light weight and easily portable. It works great and the price can't be beat. Very clear channels with hardly no static on any channels and only uses 2 AA batteries too!
Review: Great Reception, Well Made, Great Battery Life, Great Sound - Great little Radio! Curved design fits pants pockets well. Excellent reception. Pulls in many AM & FM Stations that stay tuned, do not fade, no chasing them on the dial once tuned in, great, clear sound for small speaker, long battery life.

## Features
