Hey, Y'all!

I need your help with this one, as my weather radio died. I want something that has SAME technology; I don't need AM/FM, nor do I need a hand crank. I prefer something that's easily programmable and can run on AC as well as DC. This is a Santa thing so I can go up to about 50 bucks.

Any recommendations would be so greatly appreciated!

For the record...........I did receive this for Christmas and I love it. It works as advertised and I can control what alerts I get. Great recommendation.

I do love it. It works as advertised. It does not have, of course, wind speed, but it does give alerts as advertised and they are very loud. I can highly recommend it.

Thanks! We were at WalMart yesterday and saw one, so I grabbed it. All set up and ready to go. 🙂
