In an Emergency, it will suffice. Nov 02, 2011
By Gearhead
The GPX WF308 isn't a top of the line AM/FM/NOAA Radio, that you can spend anywhere from $50-$100 on. However, in a pinch, this little radio will suffice. I tried this radio indoors when I received it first and it did pick up AM/FM stations. I didn't pick up any NOAA alerts (which is a good sign, of course), however, am a little skeptical of the reception without an antenna. I have tested this outdoors as well. Where I live is rather secluded (in the woods), and it was good that I received a signal indoors/outdoors. Nonetheless, having this and my Scorpion Emergency Radio in my bug out bags puts me a little closer to being at ease. On to the pro's and con's:
The Pro's:
Fairly Light (for what it offers).
Runs on C Batteries and Hand Cranking.
Picks up AM/FM frequencies.
Flashlight and Lantern (which are decent enough to help guide you in the dark).
Plastic casing doesn't seem too cheap, but I wouldn't get overly aggressive with it.
The Con's:
The clock simply drains the batteries as well as any juice that you've given it by cranking. The clock is the only real downfall to this product.

Clock feature drains batteries. Nov 12, 2009
By David M. Stinnett
I like this product except for the clock feature. Having a clock running on an item that is mostly for emergencies just means that the batteries are going to be less effective than I want them to be. Crank lever improvement in design but radio still to easy to turn on by accident.

Great Oct 05, 2011

Very happy with this. It got me through hurricane Irene. No electricity for a week. Easy to figure out. Best of all, it doesn't need D batteries, which are hard to find when their is a storm coming.

 Not quite right Jan 15, 2010
By Lawrence H. Oswald
We like LED lights for camping and mini-emergencies. This lantern lights either four or seven LEDs in the flashlight and five in the handle floodlight. Both of these are bright. I also want better switching for dim energy saving lighting. The mono FM radio seems fine. No earphone jack. AM reception seems weak. It has a weather radio also.
There is a (small?) built in NiMH battery that is charged by the crank or charger. Also four C cells can be inserted after which the unit will not balance on its end where the flood light is most practical. It is not clear if rechargeable C cells will be charged by the crank or external (not included) 12VDC chargers. The unit is solidly made and might be very useful.
