You may want to look at Freeplay: http://www.freeplay.net/freeplay/products/radio_fpr2.htm Their products are solar powered and/or hand crank powered. They are designed for people in remote locations. (I've never found the need for this myself & don't have one). I've seen several favorable reviews. No doubt you can find smaller, cheaper units which run on batteries, at Radio Shack. jerry.
