Review on ๐Ÿ“ป 20-576 Emergency Crank Radio with AM/FM/WX by Ario Rojas

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works well for the low current price, but it's not a DSP.

Since it is not a DSP, it has reception problems without the antenna raised, which is not necessary with most DSP radios. It's a (if you can call it that) DSP replacement, but it's also not as good as the Kaito KA346, Radio Shack's version of the DSP has part number 2000655, but the Kaito KA346 is much better for the same radio functions. plus now costs $30 when purchased directly from American distributor "Electonnix". It has excellent weak signal capture. AM capability (a clear issue with some DSP radios) and it can be quite noisy, which is an important feature for an emergency radio as you may want to be able to clearly understand voice transmissions during a real emergency.

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • The list is getting big.
