  • This is my review of the Sangean HDR-16 HD/FM/AM Portable Radio. I bought it at Amazon for $97.40 plus tax. Here are the links to the radio bandscans that I performed prior to this review.

    I had a radio like that when i was locked up. They sold two different Sangean radio models including one with a thick clear acrylic case which was the more expensive one coming in around $150, i believe it was the WR-2 . They're really good radios with nice bass.

    I get that 1210 WPHT HD not locked as well. Maybe one day it will lock. I get NYC, Chicago, Philly clear channels at night in Virginia. Get 5 Canada channels, CFZM, CKLW, CJBC, ChML and 1610 am.

    The HDR-16 would have benefited greatly from selectable band with filters on its MW band. Perhaps 4 kHz, 6 kHz and 8 kHz. Also, I would like to have seen it at least six or perhaps 8 inches longer with a much longer for right core. Oh, and while I’m at it, selectable fine-tuning in 1 kHz steps on MW. Is that too much to ask?!

    • @tvradio1972
      @tvradio1972  Місяць тому

      Yes, I would've loved to have selectable bandwidth filters and 1 KHz stepping, too. My guess is that it would add to the cost of the radio. Have a good weekend.

    A beautiful set. Does it all receive the MW in HD, not that I have anything left here in HD, but there are definitely digital only stations on MW now.

    • @tvradio1972

      You really need a good signal to receive a station that still broadcasts in HD. Even without the HD, it receives analog MW stations well.

    I have a couple of questions for you about this radio that I use every day. So I’m all the way in Troy Michigan. And I can pick up Wpht 1210. During the day and night. I can also pick up kyw 1060. Day and night. How can I get those to stations from 9 hours away? And what does the zip code feature do? And what does the tuneing region do?

    • @tvradio1972
      @tvradio1972  4 місяці тому

      I guess it depends on what time of day you listen to WPHT & KYW. If it is an hour or so before sunset or after sunrise, you might be able to get them. The zip code feature is used to alert you of advisories and warnings that pertain to your area. The tuning regions let you set the range of frequencies and tuning steps that pertain to your region.
