I have a 1978 3.5" Panasonic B&W that has come in handy during hurricanes Katrina, Ivan, and numerous power outages. During both hurricanes, the cable was out, meaning that we had to rely on analog OTA reception. Since my DTV boxes run on AC only, that will limit the use of my portable during a power outage after 2/17/09. My only options would be to find a battery operated converter, modify my existing converter to run on a battery pack, or buy a converter that runs off a wall wart and build a battery pack to plug into it's DC input jack.
