Well, it's the Weather Radio that "the Shack" sells that costs $70 or so,
has a LCD display.  Outside of Radio Shack, there really isn't anyone else
selling the "Specific Area Message Encoding" capable radios.  At least not
for the consumer market.  SAME is also linked to the new EAS (Emergency
Alert System) that replaced the old EBS "If this had been an actual
emergency..." used by broadcasters.

From what I've heard Radio Shack can't keep them on the shelves.  They sell
out quickly despite being the most expensive weather radio in the place.
