Review: I received one of these radios as a gift, and being in Oklahoma we have serve storms and tornados this time of year and loose electrical power. This radio is wonderful, and such a sense of security when the power goes out. I would recommend it to everyone!

Review: This radio does everything it says it will, and it does it quite well.

My siblings and I bought this for our parents, who also live in Oklahoma, and they have been very enthused by it. My 77-year-old father actually listens to regular radio with it, and has tinkered with the shortwave.

The sound is very good, and it is easy to operate, even for my extremely non-technical Dad. He did get tired of winding it, and this leads to my only gripe: CCrane need to include an AC adapter. The dynamo is nice, but the novelty wears off quickly. (We bought an adapter from Radio Shak, and it has worked fine.)
