Listener feedback – Listener Cameron asks:

Hello,

I am looking for a handcrank radio, with a built in speaker, just like the average short-wave radio, but I need it to have internal memory, so I can upload mp3 audio to it. I want a single unit that will play mp3 audio for a whole room. I do not want to have to use headphones.

The intent here is to give away to poor people in rural locations where they are fortunate to ever see a battery, let alone have an occasional supply, and I want to load certain mp3 files to it first. A fancy video player is not needed, but radio capabilities are a good plus.

Do you know of such a device? If so, email it to me @ tctpodcast@gmail.com.

Mammoths Return (via Oh Gizmo!) “Oohh, Aahh, that’s how all of this starts, but then later there’s the running and screaming”
