Well, I don't know about TV bands, but I have a couple of the Grundig 100PE mini shortwaves (w/ AM & FM) for my vehicle and 72 hour kits. About 1x2.75x4.25, weighs somewheres around a quarter pound with it's battereis. I got mine for 25 bucks a piece. Not sure if they dip into the weather bands, I should look, but I'm pretty sure they don't do the TV bands. <br><br>Weather and TV bands shouldn't be too hard to do within that kind of size and prince envelope. Have you talked to Radio Shack? They might have questionable answers, but thier catalogs are accurate.
