I ran across a small (about the size of a 9v battery...little thinner) radio with attached headphones that has an on/off switch (which I have taped in off position) and one button which is a "seek" button. The unit is FM only, and has decent sound and reception. It runs on a lithium button-type battery and I have never used it for very long to test out how long it would last. Its a small unit that may come in handy, if I needed to hear announcements in an emergency...provided the local stations are stil on the air. I picked the unit up at a truck stop, of all places. Was going in to pick up a drink, and noticed it there. Being the gear junkie that I am, I had to have it, just to see if it works. Seems like it ran around $6.
