charging, Bluetooth® streaming and with S.A.M.E. technology? The
FRX5-BT is just the ticket. With a rechargeable lithium battery, super­duper solar panel and hand crank power generator, it’s an essential for
every emergency kit—at home, at work, or in the great outdoors.

ON EXTRA ALERT

When the “Alert” function is on, the radio will automatically broadcast NOAA
emergency weather alerts for your area such as hurricanes, tornadoes and severe

storms. Plus, the FRX5-BT also features S.A.M.E. technology (Specic Area Message

Encoding) for extra alert power. Just enter your S.A.M.E. county code and if there’s a
warning, watch or advisory you’ll see it—with red, orange or green lights—and hear
about it, too. You can set up to 25 locations so you’ll be safe, wherever you are.

more than just the radio, it's Bluetooth® ready and has AUX­in to play your own tunes or listen to your favorite podcast.

of talk time. You can also use the micro-USB cable to charge
the FRX5-BT’s built-in rechargeable battery.

your device, just like plugging into the wall.

ADD SOME AMBIANCE

The built-in, top mounted, dimmable ambient light on the top
of the FRX5-BT provides just the right amount of light for the
