The product offers excellent charging and reception capabilities, making it a reliable emergency communication tool. It has useful features like CTCSS/DCS squelch support, channel scan, and dual watch. The compact and portable design is suitable for outdoor activities. However, it lacks GMRS repeater transmit functionality, and some users have concerns about the plastic construction feeling fragile. The power output on GMRS channels is also reported to be inconsistent.

Not sure about the rest of the functions of the radio, but I've had it a few weeks, and last night around 3am its, I guess, SOS Alarm just decides to go off on its own! ... At first I thought it was a neighbors' alarm system, because it didn't sound like it was coming from inside the house and my SimpliSafe system said all was well .... I laid in bed waiting for the alarm to go off, but after 20 minutes I got up to go outside and investigate only to discover that the alarm was in fact this si...

Very nice radio
Haven't had a chance to use it in the field yet, but checking it out at home it seems to be a very legitimate unit, not a childs toy.

Good piece of kit
A useful piece of kit. A swiss army knife of a radio with AM/FM/GMRS/NWS receiver. Can be charged with crank or by pluging into a USB/c outlet. Also has a flashlight. The receiver works well and provides valuable use for emergencies or power outage. Also useful for just listening to your favorite stations music etc. I think this is a minimum must have for any household as an emergency comms tool.

A Must Have for Hunting Camp
This was a must have for my hunting cabin where there is no cell service. We use GMRS handhelds when we are out but this stays in the cabin. It can be powered 5 different ways: AC plug, DC car adapter, alkaline batteries, rechargeable battery, and a hand-crank dynamo. It is perfect for emergencies and lets us monitor our GMRS channels from in the house when there are still some guys out hunting. It would be 5 stars if you could swap out the antenna for a higher gain antenna! Otherwise reall...
