XHDATAD808 Portable AM FM SW LW Air Band Shortwave Radio SSB RDS Multi Band Digital Radio Speaker with LCD Display Alarm Clock External Antenna (Black)

The media could not be loaded. Attached video is a religion broadcast from Madagascar, 8,800 miles away!GREAT RADIO-hello I live In USA Ohio and wanted to give some insight on this neat radio that I've had for 2 days.-The FM works great (can get stations over 100 miles away)The AM (MW) is acceptable if your outside. (The radio does NOT use either of the external antenna options for AM (MW) it uses an internal antenna for AM ONLY)-SW- Incredible quality! I've heard broadcasts from Madagascar (East of Africa), China, Spain, Cuba, France, and even Australia (very faint due to propagation) but it's thereAirband- the airband is great I've heard hundreds of transmissions so far, most very clear.SSB works excellent- use it to drown out powerful stations to focus on smaller ones or find ham operators.The battery- Lasts about 30 hours if you never turn off the radio (40 hours with upgraded batteries)100 is a little steep for a radio but this one comes with all bands and is very aesthetic. You can't find a radio that has as as much functionality as this one for under $100

This is a really cool radio...I have no idea how to use most of the features, but I like just having them there lol. The sound is really loud and clear, although flat. No controls for the radio sound, but if that is what you're looking for this is not the radio for you.

A lot of features for such a compact radio. The audio quality is great esp. with all of the various audio filter settings.Bonus points for the SSB and air band performance. Amazing FM broadcast band audio and true stereo separation (with headphones). I wish it had just a true On / Off switch that turned off the display light and the radio and bypassed the sleep timer completely, but it's a minor issue once you get used to it. (Why is a sleep timer so important on a short wave radio?) It is possible to accidentally leave the display light on even after turning the radio off, but again, I'm used to it now. Nice battery life and it recharges reasonably fast.

I just recently purchased this model on all the reviews I've read and videos I've seen. It works fantastic on everything but mw. I've compared it to other portable radios and doesn't even come close to pulling in stations even an older transistor radio from the late 70s early 80s. Maybe I just got a bad one not sure.

A ton of features packed into a small package. Well built - doesn’t feel cheap. All bands perform well, but AM shines. Wishing the controls had a back light but at this price point you can’t have everything. Highly recommended.

Absolutely wonderful to operate. With my antenna and with the included antenna the low bands are a pleasure to tune. When I take out the device in a portable fashion with a carbon fiber extendable mast I lose count of the bands tuned and the time will fly by. The audio output is hooked up to a bluetooth transmitter and a large wattage speaker even thought the included speaker is a perfect size and has ample volume. The battery lasts and lasts. The XHDATA will pick up an air band signal well before a one of my well known radios with my set up.

I loved everything about this radio. The quality and functions is excellent. Reception is awesome and ease of use is appreciated. Digital tuning is on point. Battery life is great. This radio is missing one key element for me, NOAA weather band. This radio would be perfect for power outages and emergency conditions if it had NOAA weather bands. Lighted keypad is definitely need at this price point

I Have several XHDATA radios and they manufacture quality radios. Their sensitivity let's you listen to far away stations from all over the planet on Shortwave. This particular radio is used as reference against all current Shortwave radios made because of it's excellent sensitivity and selectivity to dig out weak stations. Is a SSB capable radio so you can listen to Amateur Radio, airplanes and military communications.On Medium Wave it's picks distant AM stations within the country and DX stations outside the country. FM audio is excellent and the RDS stations information is displayed for your information an added improvement on the radio on this latest version.The radio tunes the AIR bands so you can listen to your local airport tower communications. LW long wave can be listened too with local beacons and European stations using this band.This is an exceptional radio others are compared to with excellent sensitivity and selectivity in a perfect size for travel. I am happyto see how XHDATA provide us with the best portable radios available. I am very happy with my radio!
