After the big blackout I bought a crank radio. The Grundig FR200 (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000083CUA/qid=1125588955/sr=8-2/ref=pd_bbs_2/102-0690281-3932167?v=glance&s=home-garden&n=507846) Is pretty handy when there is no power and the reception is good enough that I use it in the garage. One other neat feature is that it uses cordless phone batteries that are easily replaceable.

Flashlight/battery powered radio: Device used for storage of dead batteries.:rofl:


But, Daaaannn ... if there's no power, who are you gonna listen to, since the broadcasters won't have any power either? :rolleyes:

Anyway, it's a lousy price, 'cause I know some guys up in new ... york city, who can give you a helluv a deal on one. ;)

I've been watching the NOLA TV stations on the web. They have power. Some of them might not have antennas though.
