I haven't tried the FR250 though, it could be what your looking for. I basically chose this radio for it's cheap price, emergency use, and overall tuning performance. It beat out many much more expensive models.

Yes, I saw the black model there also and it did look better then the gray model. Again probably would be a great emergency AM/FM radio if sold for around $20 or less. For $40 I would want better features and quality, and the sale at $30 just put it in the middle of my decision making logic, so I passed before I got a headache
