There are newer models for portable weather radios that fix some of the problems in the reviews listed here, including the WR113 that includes a charging dock, and the WR601 that has non-volatile memory and a dock, so you don't have to input your SAME codes after the battery runs out. from Amazon.com A great tool to own especially when you are outdoor in the elements. It forecast the weather conditions, such as forth coming storms, the temperature, the winds speed and much more. Excellent gift for the outdoors persons! from Amazon.com Not in the campground in Orleans. Not even on the docks in Provincetown, surrounded by big commercial fishing trawlers, whale-watching ships catering to the tourists, and private luxury vessels. Now, WHERE, you might ask, would be a more likely place for NOAA to provide weather radio service? Oh, did I mention that Cape Cod is also home to the Woods Hole Oceanagraphic Institute? from Amazon.com I bought the Oregon Scientific WR102 to supplement an older weather alert clock radio that did not have the SAME feature. I never could get it to work right. from Amazon.com I love this weather radio. I go kayaking and camping every weekend in the summer. from Amazon.com On 8/4/08, it paid for itself. The Tornado warnings and Thunderstorm warnings were fast and furious in the upper midwest. Even Wrigley Field 41,000 people, was under a Tornado Warning. (3 touched down in the Chicago area.) (The above was added after a year of use.) from Amazon.com I live in Florida, where the weather changes rapidly and we've had our share of severe episodes. I decided on this compact model when purchasing a weather radio because it's mobile and can be used anywhere. from Amazon.com I live in Florida, where the weather changes rapidly and we've had our share of severe episodes. I decided on this compact model when purchasing a weather radio because it's mobile and can be used anywhere. from Amazon.com A must have for those in the tornado areas, with it's silent monitoring. Also great for sailing in so calif waters where Santa Ana winds can occur with little specific warning. I think some of the writers did not fully explore the setup wich appers to allow you to limit the warnings to a specific part of the area covered by the broadcasts. Several times the radio has awakened after months of standby operation and in the middle of the night announced a flash flood alert for my area. from Amazon.com A must have for those in the tornado areas, with it's silent monitoring.
