Features
Overview: This is a portable AM/FM/NOAA Weather Radio. The
FR360 can be powered by five different sources; an AC adapter (optional), three
"AAA" batteries (not included), the rechargeable Ni-MH battery (included),
the hand crank on the left side, or using Solar power. The hand crank provides
emergency power. The unit also has a built-in light.
AM/FM Channels: The FR360 receives AM (520-1710 kHz) and FM
(87.5-108 MHz) stations.
Weather Channels: This radio allows you to select any of the
seven NOAA weather broadcast channels. These broadcasts are found in the public
service frequency band, and include 162.400MHz (Channel 1), 162.425MHz (Channel
2), 162.450MHz (Channel 3), 162.475MHz (Channel 4), 162.500MHz (Channel 5),
162.525MHz (Channel 6), and 162.550MHz (Channel 7).
NOAA Alert: This function turns off the radio, but continues
to monitor the NOAA frequency. If an alert is broadcast, it turns back on, enabling
you to hear the alert broadcast.

telescoping antenna covers FM bands.
Clock with Alarm: The unit features a built-in 12/24-hour clock

turn on or off. Activating the sleep timer enables the radio to play for 90, 60,
30, or 10 minutes then shuts off automatically.

at 3.6 volts DC. It can be recharged by the optional AC adapter (sold separately)
or the hand crank.
