This emergency radio monitors the around-the-clock...
This emergency radio monitors the around-the-clock broadcasts of NOAA Weather Radio All Hazards transmitted directly from your nearest National Weather Service office. The NOAA "All Hazards" radio network is your single most immediate source of comprehensive weather information as well as instantaneous emergency alerts of potential threats to life and property! It also features an Alert function that lets the user know when the National Weather Service issues Imminent Weather or Civil Emergency warnings in your area. With its Specific Area Message Encoding (S.A.M.E.) technology, you can customize alerts to receive them only for your county or those surrounding your location.
The WR203 was specifically designed for use during emergencies and survival situations. The integrated hand crank and solar panel make it easy to keep the LED flashlight, siren and AM/FM/weather band radio charged up, providing renewable energy to the radio and flashlight during a power outage or when away from a power source. A charging port is also available that allows you to manually recharge a USB-compatible cell phone (by cranking or by adapter) to make mobile communications easier. In cases where rechargeable battery power is low or has no power, the unit will source its energy from the 3 AAA alkaline back-up batteries. This multi-powered emergency radio not only keeps you aware of changing weather conditions, it also entertains. Plug in and listen to your personal music collection, your favorite radio station or up-to-date weather information. With clock and alarm, keep track of time and wake up bright and ready for a new day of exploring and enjoying the natural surroundings. With the addition of an emergency siren, flashlight and ability to charge your mobile phone, the WR203 emergency radio is a must-have item for your outdoor adventures.Features:
