Grundig Eton FR1000 Voicelink Survival Radio Is Gorgeous
Posted by Brian Lam at 12:19 PM on January 6, 2008
Awesome: The Eton FR1000 Voicelink is maybe one of the most pornograpic survival radios I've ever seen, but functionally so. IT has AM/FM/NOAA Weather/2-Way GMRS Radio. And a Flashlight, siren, and Cellphone charger. It runs off of 4AAs, but has a hand crank. The design seems superfluous, but those cutouts actually protect the knobs. There's a large handle on the back. If I were to die stranded in the wilderness, I might be slightly less upset clutching one of these beautiful machines. $US150.
The Catch: No word on water resistance, and the recessed knobs seem hard to turn with gloves on.

Where can you get these in Australia? Does anyone know? Been looking everywhere but cannot find a reseller.
