Gator,if your just looking for an AM beater,as much as I dont care for them I would still recommend a Uniden 510.they seem to take a beating better than most due to their small mass.and not a bad little hotrod for a simple little no frills radio.

Allagator,

For a GREAT Little 40 Channel AM Radio look at the Texas Ranger TR-121CP at the link below.

Good Low Price and a 2 YEAR WARRANTY!

I am not sure but I do not think any other small radio like the TR-121CP has the 2 Year Warranty with them for such a low price.

Allagator, go for a Uniden PC 68, or if you need it, a Uniden PC 68 with weather. These are good radios! I must caution you, make sure you get one made in Phillipines, as Uniden moved their operation to China last year. There are still some around from Phillipines, you will just have to look for them. They are a good radio, and should hold up to what punishment you are talking about. By the way, my LaCrosse Logger Boots are size 11 EE. What about yours????
And everybody thought all I did was sell food!
