An NOAA radio is one of the items on our flood preparedness lists, and certainly not a bad idea in general. It is also applicable to many other weather related preparedness scenarios like hurricanes. I found one on a discount website I frequent and was hoping for some feedback from those who have experience with this kind of radio. The one I found is here so if anyone can comment on the maker, or even the specific model, or any of it's features, it would be greatly appreciated. What I like most about it is the battery and crank power options.
