Just a little AM/FM Shortwave radio like the ones C Crane makes. You can get them off Alibaba or one of those sites for under $50. They do AM, FM, NOAA Weather band plus Alert, Shortwave (2300 - 26100 kHz), VHF Aviation.

AM, FM, NOAA Weather band plus Alert, Shortwave (2300 - 26100 kHz), VHF Aviation. I will dig it out and take a picture when I get home. I don’t know shit about radios so maybe I am explaining it wrong.
