This weather radio (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Realistic-Crystal-Controlled-Weatheradio-Weather-Radio-Model-12-151A/251298051409?rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222002%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D163%26meid%3D8985060543358545417%26pid%3D100005%26prg%3D1088%26rk%3D2%26sd%3D181171299831%26) is unusually supercool classy looking.  Unfortunately it doesn't get the main weather station in our area.  If it did, it may have been a good addition to the car.  We also liked this one (http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-REALISTIC-PATROLMAN-CB-6-MULTIBAND-RADIO-WORKS-/121134795853?pt=Vintage_Electronics_R2&hash=item1c34324c4d), for getting bands for just over $30 what we would have gotten on a scanner for $100+.  Granted a vintage isn't going to get FM or NFM, but a lot of transmissions still go on analog.  And you'd get the chance to find out whether CB is now a silent band now that its no longer the 70s.  We suspect it's anything but.  This one (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Russian-Multi-Band-Transistor-Radio-With-Owners-Manual-/330952640840?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4d0e508948) is a Russian radio, with a wonderfully complex slide rule dial.  Seems as though it tunes into bands you're not legally supposed to tune into in the US!
