If you aren't aware, radios today are not the low drain, transistor radios of the past!
Price
I recommend them - you can get 2 batteries and a charger for like $20 - $25 here on amazon.
The inclusion of air band was a bonus at this price point.
You would pay 3 times price for what it has.
Price conscious buyers should shop around for any radio, because prices vary.
Shipping
I did receive air band transmissions on the r-108, but i'm not experienced in this area.
Competitiveness
It has a very surprising 3-watt speaker, that's more powerful and better sounding than many other similar radios.
If you want bass, then the xhdata d-109 would be the better choice in this price class.
