    I have a 1992 T800 I use on the farm and looking to replace to Panasonic AM/FM cassette radio since it's hard to tell what button is what & the lights don't work in it. I want something with bigger buttons, easier to see so I wouldn't take my eyes off the road if I want to change channels or volume. All I'd like is AM/FM with weather band. I've seen a few advertised as "heavy duty" for trucks from 25-50 watt . Any input on what's a decent radio? I'm not looking to buy a high dollar one since I'm not in the truck much but would like to know where to buy one and what speakers to get also since the 6" round ones in the truck sound like the speaker in McDonalds drive through. Here's a few links to what I've seen online that interested me:
