    Default Good Little Emergency Radio.

    Hey Guys,

    Hurricane season each year causes us to prepare & inspect our equipment. I had a small hurricane radio for about 20 years that came from Radio Shack. The coating deteriorated so bad you could not hold it anymore.

    I spent some time researching online & decided on this one based on reviews. I got it last month, very happy with it. The clarity is great, palm size, looks well built.

    Sangean, Model # MMR-88

    It's pretty much Sangean, Grundig, Eton and Sony that are the big players in these things.

    I have never cared for the clarity of the Eton.

    Many of the Grundig models are actually Eton. They make a lot of models from basic to really sophisticated.
