A Lifeline to Information
Floods, fires, tornadoes, blizzards, and earthquakes--these are situations that nobody wants to find themselves in. The most critical resource during any emergency or natural disaster is information. Being able to make informed decisions and communicate with others is vital. The American Red Cross FR-1000 Voicelink Radio is built from the ground up to be a rugged, highly portable communication tool. It has an AM/FM tuner for news and public service announcements, as well as entertainment. The NOAA Weather Band radio receives weather broadcasts, warnings and other emergency messages. It can also be set to automatically activate on its own, informing you of any new alerts.

The American Red Cross FR-1000 also ensures that your voice can be heard by others. The onboard two-way radio utilizes the GRMS/FRS bands, and is compatible with virtually every handheld radio and walkie-talkie on the market in America. It can be set to automatically scan through 22 channels and 121 privacy codes, allowing you to monitor or broadcast to those around you. Additionally, the VOX setting allows for convenient hands-free transmission. The FR-1000 can even keep you in touch with those who are farther away by charging cell phones via its on-board batteries or hand crank.

The FR-1000 Makes Your Presence Known
The American Red Cross FR-1000 offers multiple communication options, maximizing your ability to stay connected with others no matter the situation. During the day, a built-in siren can emit a continuous tone to announce your presence. Activate the bright red LED signal beacon and 'SOS' is spelled out in Morse Code, perfect for long distance signaling at night. The FR-1000 also comes equipped with a flashlight, ensuring that you'll never be left in the dark.

Redundant Power Sources for Always-On Reliability
Having a device that sports multiple modes of communication means nothing if there is no way to power it, and the FR-1000 has been designed with that thought in mind. It can be powered via the included AC adapter and rechargeable battery pack, or by additional AA batteries. In the event that external power supplies are exhausted, the FR-1000 also employs a hand-operated dynamo. A few turns of its handle will bring light, news and information, no matter the situation.

Self-Powered Hand-Crank AM/FM/NOAA Weather/2-Way GMRS Clock Radio with Flashlight, Siren and Cell Phone Charger. Stay connected with the Voicelink FR-1000.

- Great Design Marred by Poor Components
I've had this radio for a few months and tested it so my review is based on some experiences.
First off I'd say if you don't have any emergency radio at all this one is worth consideration. It looks rugged, is easy to grab in a hurry, and has a ton of features. The weather band and Emergency alert alone are worth owning this. I have not tried the two way radio feature yet, so can't comment on that. This will run on batteries as well as a hand crank rechargeable battery. The problem is that the rechargeable ... Read More

- Fails primary duty: AM/FM radio tuners barely work
No question, this radio "looks good", seems like strong construction, and has quite a list of features. Yes, the flashlight, siren, and SOS beacon work well. The NOAA Weather channels seem to work, depending on your location. The GMRS/FRS radio performance is dismal. But most important to me as an emergency source of information - this unit fails its primary function: AM/FM radio reception. AM reception is nearly non-existent, and I live near very powerful AM stations. FM reception is very weak and includes ... Read More

- This one may already have saved our life
First, a confession: I'm not great with alarm sounds and noises. I tend to think something is about to swoop in and grab me or the world is about to explode. In this case, a tornado was in our area and the radio was my first warning system, faster than the television set or even the storm sirens in our area.

I was about to leave the house and I did not. Trees fell across the road and some people had parts of their roof torn off. One person was struck by lightening. Hail fell. It was nasty weather and ... Read More
