The Spirit of Radio

[athelind]

Why is it so hard to find a portable radio or, hell, even an entertainment center-style stereo that has a nice row of programmable radio buttons, so you don't have to twiddle up and down the dial every time some hockey game clutters up your classic rock station?

I've been meaning to pick up some of the nifty portable radios I've seen around the city before. I think at least some of them have had programmable buttons. :3 And quite a few can even pick up the weather-radio and shortwave bands, which can be quite handy if you're out off the grid.

I like the ones that can be plugged in, take batteries, cranked up, or solar charged. ^^ And if you can nab one that makes use of the SAME system for the weather radio, then all the better.
