[Electronics-Talk] Question relating to Weather Radios

[Robin Frost]

Hi,

I hope this finds all happy and well. I tried to find a group archive to 
see if this was covered before but couldn't find one so here am I 
apologizing in advance for repetition if this has already been 
addressed. In light of recent and more frequent extreme weather I found 
myself wanting to purchase a weather radio as the ones I had in earlier 
times are long gone.

I find myself stuck between the C-Crane SkyWave2 and the Midland - 
WR120B - NOAA Emergency Weather Alert Radio - S.A.M.E. Localized 
Programming, Trilingual Display, 60+ Emergency Alerts, & Alarm Clock
(WR120B.

The Midland is certainly cheaper and boasts the S.A.M.E more targeted 
alerts but what gives me pause is whether or not a blind person can even 
set any of that up.

I was just wondering if any on this list have either of these radios 
specifically for weather alerts as that'd be my primary use for such or 
if there are any other recommendations that might be more advantageous 
for those of us who are blind.

Thanks in advance.

Take good care,

Robin
