Emergency radio

I am looking to purchase a emergency potable radio and reviews that I have read (many, many reviews) I am beginning to wonder if any of these devices are worth purchasing. A lot of the reviews,...

I have several of those radios, one in each car and one in a waterproof locker, I like the shortwave feature but wish they would do SSB on the shortwave band.

I looked into the etonFr600b and must say it appears to be one of those on my short list but there are a few features that I and those on other boards don't like: <br />
Have to purchase a separate AC...

I would use the radio as a radio, to charge the USB stuff use one of these hummers. <br />

As far as the radio goes, take a look at this one, it has 6 ways to power it.

Terryl I looked at those 902 Voyager Self-Powered and added it to my list also. As far a a solar array I thought about that but would like to keep it to one device. Guess I am just expecting too much....LOL.
