The Midland XT-511 is a very versatile two way 22 channel FRS/GMRS radio with additional emergency radio functions.  Not only can the XT-511 communicate with other FRS and GMRS radios, allowing you to stay in touch with others, it also receives AM and FM broadcast bands, plus NOAA Weather Radio broadcasts and emergency alert system alerts.

The XT-511 receives AM and FM broadcast bands for entertainment at the campsite, or to receive news bulletins during an emergency.

The XT-511 receives NOAA All Hazard and Weather Alert radio broadcasts with Alert Override functions. The combined All Hazards/Weather Alert broadcast network is the single, most immediate source for comprehensive weather and emergency information available to the public.

The XT-511 has 5 power options.  The unit can operate from it's rechargeable NiMH battery pack (included), standard AA Alkaline batteries (not included), external AC and cigarette lighter adapters, or from it's Dynamo crank. The XT-511 has a USB power jack which (with the correct adapter cables) can be used to power or recharge devices such as cell phones.  The unit also has a high efficiency LED flashlight built in.

But most importantly, the XT-511 is made by Midland, the radio people.  If you are looking for a radio you can count on, do you really want to buy something less?
