I purchased an ETON Model FR800 ay Best Buy for approx. $60.00. It comes with an AC adapter and battery backup with "C" cell batteries. These radios are easy to program and I programmed Sumter, Marion, and Lake Counties to cover all basis. I agree, you can go to your nearest Fire Station and they can do it for you.

The radio worked like a charm alerting us of the various warnings when TS Debby was paying us a visit last week.
