Good morning, so I have a bit of a problem. Last night I lost my midland wr 100 (had a missing antenna as well) to the "screeching sound" on all stations I was some what surprised it took 7 years to do this but oh well. So I was thinking about replacing it for my weather radio collection, I've narrowed it down to the radio shack 12-262, the radio shack 12-521, or if there are issues with that one the reecom-R1630. My question is what is the difference between the 12-262 and 12-521 and have there been reported hardware problems such as the "screeching sound". Thanks have a nice day!
(edit) Odd thing about the WR100 some times it will work for a period of time then goes back to screeching.
