I bought this for my parents when they went cruising on their sailboat. It was a good back up for them with cell phone charging.

Better than I thought it would be.

 

Better than I thought it would be.

I have problems with my FM reception because I am close to some foothills. I was expecting this radio to be the same as all my other ones. Surprise! It provides great FM reception. It is also a wonderful size for travel. Now when the storms come,...
