Radio Shack also makes them, these type of radios are in wide use in third world country's... A few religious broadcasters give a "Fixed Frequency" version away for free...Of course, the ONLY station you can get is their's.....

Someone needs to come up with $50-75k to build a portable studio-transmitter plant in a 40 foot semi-trailer that will fit in a C-130 cargo aircraft..... This has been done before, C/C radio has two of these....
