I love them all...
If I thought civilization was about to come to an end, I would grab one of the brand Z TransOceanics. I have enough timed in service out ELT battery packs to run one for a long long time. If i thought I could get 110 VAC I might go with the 43B

If I was stuck at home and the US was still in good shape, I would go with a 48-482 (VntgRads has a nice picture of one above) Good performer with the modern FM band. If the US collapsed but I was stuck at home I would go with the 37-116
