I don't own one. My brother Big Mike owns one and has used it to listen to the weather report when the power goes out and the tornado warning sirens blow at intermittent intervals from ten at night until four in the morning. It works, but he only listens to the weather report.
The unit I suspect you want is illegal in the U.S. and Canada, because it will receive radio frequencies that are used for cell phones and other interesting things. The cops use a scrambler unit, but that can be broken if you can pick up a signal, which is against the law. Ditto with cordless phones and what-not.
I suppose if someone gave you a hand powered receiver, well, why not? It's free. If you lived along tornado alley or some similar area, then it's a good investment.
That would make an ironic lampshade...
ReplyDeleteThere's not enough contrast in that picture.
