Default Need small rugged SW for long distance bike tour

FR-200. Not "real" small but has the advantage of not needing batteries.
Crank away...
P.S. I wasn't referring to speed when I said crank away....

I'm riding my bicycle on a long distance bike tour next
summer. Will be camping out along way

What small rugged model SW would you guys advise for
such a trip?


Don't buy that cheap Chinese-made Grundig piece-of-crap FR200 - if you
read the reviews on eham.net and Amazon, you will see that it has
crappy reception and the crank tends to fall off ! Go Grundig !
