Review: Incredible for Low Price - Initially, I had problems with the Shortwave Reception. Ordered a replacement, but it was lost in shipping! I'm a long time radio enthusiast, radio amateur operator, and tinkerer so I disassembled the radio. I re-routed the antenna wire, which was too long and poorly dressed. I added an SMA Jack for an External Antenna using RG-174 and attached the Ground to the PCB’s ground plane. There’s a ton of info on the Si4825 IC Chip used in this radio and this little guy is very sensitive and is a great platform for modifications. Cost me less than $9(USD) delivered, which is a fraction of the cost of a Si4825 Development Board. I’ve been building radios since age 9, and at 71 I can say that none of my homemade xtal sets, regens, or direct conversation receivers worked as well as this XHDATA D219. I believe this little guy would work much better out in the countryside. I live in a large metropolitan area which is full of radio broadcasters, cellphone towers, TV stations, and VHF/UHF utility stations. The IC Device, a Si4825, which is the heart of this radio, is subject to RF interference. To some degree, all DSP devices suffer from this issue. In higher cost radios using these chips, filtering is added. Because there are really no filters on this inexpensive radio, it is subject to RF Interference and Overload. This becomes even a greater issue in a large metropolitan area with many transmitters. Out in the countryside, your reception on Shortwave would be much better. My radio did improve once I shortened the lead wire from the built-in telescoping antenna and added a jack for an External Antenna. I have been using my outdoor longwire antenna. It would overload and suffer from intermodulation without any filtering. So I've been using my Ham Radio Antenna Tuner between the radio and my outdoor antenna. And I've added a homemade Antenna Attenuator, you can see it in my video. Works just great. The sound quality is just fantastic for having such a small speaker. And the plastic used for the case is very high quality and nearly unbreakable. My wife liked the little radio so much that I ordered another for her. She loves the "Big Radio Sound" coming from this really small speaker and we've both been listening to a local AM Radio Oldies Station as we cook and go through our daily routine. Some users have reported that their radio was "dead" on the Shortwave Bands. As a long time Shortwave Listener (SWL) I will advise you: you must make sure that the Shortwave Bands are "OPEN". In other words, there must be radio signals present in order to hear them. For the past two days the Shortwave Bands have been "dead" due to Solar Flares. This evening I tuned the little D219, which my wife calls "Gidget", to the 17 meter SW Band. It was full of stations with Radio New Zealand booming in the loudest. I also received Radio Free Asia, transmitting in Chinese from Saipan. It was being "Jammed" - by guess who? I'll leave that to you to surmise. If you're persistent in listening, you will hear stations, some of them quite exotic. BTW, I did try out the XHDATA D219 this evening without using my outdoor antenna and attenuator. I stood next to my apartment window and easily picked up Radio New Zealand on 17.675 mHz, just using the built-in telescoping antenna. Overall, I highly recommend this little radio.
Review: Most bang for the buck out there! - This radio is well made. Not some cheap plastic dollar store junk. It is very loud and with crisp clear sound. Very loud for its size. I can hear it clearly for about fifty feet in my home. I won't have to cart it around from one room to the next so I can hear it. Just set the station I want to and let it rip. AM only picks up close local stations during the day, but more at night which is typical for AM. The stations have adequate dial in with well delineated band width. The antenna is only needed for AM and SW (which I have not tried yet and really am not interested in). It is compact, the battery compartment is snug and easy to access and fits the batteries well. They do not justle around in it all. This will be excellent to throw in the glove box of my wives' car in case of CHTF scenario or break down to save the car battery while she waits for help. It will go well in the couple small of bug out bags we have. This radio is very compact and can fit in a shirt pocket or pack pocket. I am really amazed at the sound quality. No static or bleed in the stations. I am especially satisfied with the fact that the on/ff button is separate from the volume button. Something that you would not expect in a low-cost radio. It would be awesome if it had NOAA, but for under $9.00 you cannot expect everything. I am super happy with this purchase. You will not find a better value or bang for your hard-earned buck anywhere else. This radio gets better reception than my Denon home stereo receiver does, and it cost over $2000 new (I got it second hand for much less). I will update this listing when I check out the SW channels. I do like the fact that these are preset and that there is not a jillion of them like I have seen on other models. I cannot give these guys 10 stars, but if I could, I would. The shipping was lightning fast, and it was double boxed to boot. I am going to get 2 more of these for sure. They would make great gifts for birthdays or Christmas. Man, I can say enough good things about this radio. If you are looking for a low-cost emergency or game day radio, then you absolutely need to consider this one. Am I satisfied with this radio? You bet your life I am and it might just be a God send should my life count on it in an emergency. It is all analog easy to use and looks like it is way more expensive a model than it is. Ruggedly made and will last if one keeps it out of direct sun which is not known to be very nice to plastic over time. You have to buy this radio if you are in the market for one. Later: I used the SW bands. During the day is best for this radio for this band something I expected just the opposite. Nighttime decreased my options for reliable stations with no bleed out. Move it to the number on SW band and then use the dial to find a station you want to listen to. Some of the bands provide clear stations by the boat load. Some have nothing on them. It does add to the stations you have at hand to listen to. Most of them are talk radio stations...Spanish or religious stations. It definitely expands the radio stations you can listen to. I have used earphones with this, and it is stereo, and the sound quality depends on the ear buds or phones you use. I do imagine they will decrease the battery life. I bought three more of these to use as gifts, and sent one to a friend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unexpectedly purposeful well above its price point!
*by P***K on April 26, 2024*

If your thinking about whether or not to buy this radio, think first about what you'll use it for. I believe its best use would be as a backup radio for news and weather in any emergency. - It uses AA batteries. *(how long they will last is yet to be determined) - It has around a 2" speaker that sounds crisp but by no means unpleasant. *(No base or mid to speak of, but it does sound much better than many other small radio's. The speaker sounds very clear on both AM and FM, and I did actually like the sound of some symphony music I heard on the public radio station. - The antenna is 53.3cm (21"), is sturdy, and swings 360. *( More than adequate for this radio) - The tuner seems very sensitive and I found myself picking up "many" more stations on AM and FM than a few of my other radio's. *( however; you will hear some different clicks, hisses, and other faint background noises) as you tune through other stations. These all seem to get hidden or disappear once you get to a stronger station. - I didn't find that earphones made any significant improvement over the speaker. I also couldn't tell if I was hearing ST or Mono. I'm sure it must say it online somewhere. The headphones themselves were an inexpensive set. - There is a nice fold out stand in the back that sits the radio at a nice angle for listening. - Reception on Shortwave(SW) was fairly nonexistent. *(as expected for the whip antenna). If I really wanted shortwave I would not be buying this radio! Excellent shortwave still requires a significant expense! Final Thoughts: I bought this radio for very low volume nighttime listening while in bed. It failed that test because at the volume I listen at, (which is understanding 1 word in 5), the voice was distorted; I believe because of the low power not being able to drive the speaker properly. However; I plan to keep the radio as a backup storm radio, a purpose for which I believe it is well suited; chiefly because of how many stations this tuner picks up, as well as the other reasons listed above. $10. !
