A Great Multi-Function Radio
I have five radios in my Go Bag (three are battery operated, one is a hand crank flashlight that also has a radio in it) but the Red Cross/Eton FR-300 is my Swiss Army Knife of radios and a great investment at $50 on Amazon.com. What I like most is that it can operate both with batteries and by charging it with a hand crank. It also has a cell phone charger, flashlight, siren, and individual knobs to select various weather frequencies as well as to receive audio from TV stations. Endorsement by the American Red Cross sold me on this model.
I started this blog to share with others in the New York-metro area the products I've purchased and the things I've learned in my ongoing process of preparing for any natural or man-made disasters that may happen to us. I also hope to get feedback from those who read this blog and may have advice, tips, and products to recommend. You can also email me directly at: disasterreadynyc@gmail.com. Stay safe!
