I like the first one, but I can't find anyone that has given that radio an indepth review, and the both look . . . I don't . . . fragile . . .

I'm still leaning towards the Tower Hobbies 224 just because I know its going to be around for a while and its local in the US. Also only having to take 4x AAs is so nice compares to 8x AAs, makes the radio much much lighter.
