I have descided that I want to get a radio to have as an emergency standby and am trying to choose between the Freeplay Plus that I saw in the C.Crane catalog and a similar one (sorry, but I don't remember the model) from Radio Shack.
They both feature a hand-cranked generator to charge the batteries and seem like thery are a pretty good deal. The Radio Shack model is a few bucks cheaper, but I don't know what other differances there are between them.
I confess that I don't know a heck of a lot about these, other than what I've read in their ad's, so if anyone has bought one or can advise as to the fine points on one vs. the other, I'd be most appreciative. Thanks!
