I'm so happy you mentioned the D219 😊

[@gailmrutland6508]

Solid reviews, we appreciate it!

[@glendasmith7480]

Great info. Many thx!

I have a Realistic Dx-440 made in Taiwan that I have had for 35 or so years. And it works like new. Thanks for the video, I did not know they still made good radios.

[@mtc4him201]

I've been considering this since it first came out but I have the D-328 which I liked so much I bought 2 more for my grandsons.

[@JerryScot]

Good video, cool radios. But was this voice over generated?

[@KRAFTWERK2K6]

The D.-219 is definitely an absolute nobrainer if you want the cheapes radio and not cutting too much corners. Built quality is really good and doesn't feel too weak or cheap. The antenna extends and retracts with not too much force needed and it runs on two easily available AA batteries. It doesn't come with a DC cable though but you can get a USB to DC (center negative) power cable for it to run it on Solar powerbanks if you want to. Keep in mind that radio is using a DSP (digital signal processor) so it doesn't have the analog radio typical smooth scanning but a rather choppy one. However for a DSP radio the short silent breaks when scanning are very short and it's one of the fastest DSP scanners in that price range. I have tested several other DSP based radios who cost way more and their choppy audio breaks when changing the radio frequency, were a lot longer and more annoying. So yeah this thing is definitely a recommendation if it has to be super simple and just radio only.

Great vid

I had the Tecsun PL-880 and I couldn't get ONE SW station from my house, but with the XHDATA D109 I received a solid 30 station with just the standard antenna. So the $40 XHDATA D109 outperforms the $180 Tecsun PL-880. The XHDATA D109 also has equivalent sound quality. I returned the Tecsun PL-880 and kept the much superior XHDATA D109.

Now, here is a well-presented review. I appreciate your rating summary.

[@KENKENNIFF]

Good video

[@ruggugglan]

I got both the PL880 and the Xhdata 808. I use the Xhdata most 😂

[@vonzigle]

Thanks!

[@V3ntilator]

Norway were the first country in the world to go full digital on Radio back in 2011, so i guess none of these will work here as AM, FM etc. is long gone.

[@jayommk6950]

Great choice

[@douglasw.plummer8138]

Something to think about

[@vahanyazarian5582]

I,ve had aTecsun 880 for years and own severalother radios (all analog) . There is no comparasion between analog and chip tuned radios as you will see on weak stations.I focus on tuning abilitywhen choosing a radioand thats where analog circuits shine, When your chip celects astronger signal over a weaker one you're trying to hear you'll see what i mean.

[@fwfefrtefdv4719]

Hi, which brand and has best clear sound for FM radio? No need world band

[@garyhenson9100]

D-219 IS A GREAT LITTLE RADIO

[@wasylbakowsky5199]

The Eton Satellit 750 is actually a rebadged Tecsun S-2000. For not much more money than the Retekess, the Tecsun PL-330 has better sensitivity, LW, and USB. And who wants to carry a radio with 3 D cells? Talk about ancient tech!
