The Kaito KA600 Voyager Pro is a versatile self-powered shortwave radio. It can be powered via hand-crank generation or the built-in, tiltable solar panel. The radio also has a 5 LED reading lamp and multi-function LED flashlight. A very unique feature of the KA600 is the direct keypad entry–the only one we know of on a self-powered portable at time of posting.
