Peltor is a major manufacturer of hearing protection gear. They make head sets for pilots and ear muff type hearing protection for any noisey environment. Peltor Work Tunes is (are?) an AM/FM radio built into ear muffs like you use for hearing protection. They cut down the ambient noise by about 25 dB and are limited in the radio sound to 82 dB so they don't kill your hearing with your loud music. I have had my set for aobut 5 or 6 years and use them whenever running any loud equipment. Tuning your favorite stations is a minor problem because they only have a knob with no station numbering, so if you change bands now & then you have to search. I usually start all the way at the top or bottom of the dial depending on the station I am looking for. Also, the AM antenna is somewhat directional, so if you are listening to a weak station, you lose it when you turn your head. Home Depot, Harbor Freight & Grizzly Tools carry them, as well as a bunch of other places. Look for the yellow ear muffs with the little antennat sticking up. Price is usually $55-60.
