Russ Stanton's Eton FR350

I just got a green FR350 and it also has the rubberized coating. I got mine for $20 from a friend who got the Grundig G4000A deal from Universal (I think) and didn't want the FR350 mainly because he thought it looked like junk and didn't like the color. I'm surprised they gave him a green one, but it's a nice shade of green. He said I could have it for $30 but we haggled down to $20.

I'm surprised at the quality and performance level. Mine will be located in the bathroom because it's water-resistant and it's loud and clear enough to be heard over the shower. Out in this rural location, I'd say it has good AM and FM reception.

Tone isn't Hi-Fi but sounds pretty good for its size. I like the built in LED flashlight/red flasher. It also has a siren that sounds like the cop cars around here. A fun radio.
