Radio di piccole dimensioni, ma eccellentre nel funzionamento, nella praticità e nelle finiture.Assolutamente da consigliare.

Nice radio, good sound and reception is very good. AM and Weather band work well and FM is perfect.

Un bon petit poste. Il capte très bien (sauf en charge), y compris dans des zones un peu reculées. Il est tout petit et ne prend vraiment pas de place. Les fonction BT et lecteur micro SD ne gachent rien! L'accumulateur est changeable facilement, et cette petite radio dispose d'une bonne autonomie.

funktioniert ohne Probleme

Manejo fácil e intuitivo. Muy buena calidad de audio y una sensibilidad muy buena. La duración de la batería es inmensa. Muy contento con el receptor.

Pros:NOAA reception is excellent! Extend the antenna and the signals from NH and MA stations is picked up great from the MA North shore.AM/FM/SW reception is very good. Automatic scan/memory function works great on all bands just as well as my Tecsun PL398.The SW band picks up numerous station during the day. Mostly evangelical broadcasts though if that is your thing.The sound quality is decent and the volume is loud enough to fill my living room and still hear it clearly from my adjacent kitchen and dinning rooms.Cons:* The Unprotected 18650 is smaller than the protected version used in many radios. The Tecsun Protected18650 did not fit, though maybe it could have been forced in there if I was determined.* The button pad does not light up; as a nightstand radio this could be an issue.This is a small, light, and easy to carry radio that really picks up NOAA very well which is why a bought it. I am happy with my purchase at around $40 on sale in July 2024.

This radio is my first shortwave receiver. It’s very well made, and very capable. FM reception is really good. AM is also good. It also pulls in some interesting SW broadcasts. The weather band is a nice feature to have also. Speaker sounds nice for voice and music. The sound is even better with earbuds. It’s easy to pair with devices to use as a Bluetooth speaker.A few things could be improved: the instruction manual leaves something to be desired. The way that the buttons work and how they are labeled is not intuitive. It takes a bit of experimenting to learn how to use the radio’s features. Fortunately there are a number of YouTube videos on the D-109WB that demonstrate how it works.This seems to be a good radio- I recommend it.

Product arrived on time and well packaged. For the record, I am NOT a short wave expert. I am a casual user who likes to surf the bands at times, so this radio and others like it are used for fun as well as for emergency preparedness.I also have a Sangean 909X, which easily cost 4+ times as much as this radio when I bought it back in 2011. That radio is my comparison source.First things first however. This radio has a solid build feel to it. The switches have a nice tactile feel to them. I love the use of the 18650 battery for power (The radio cannot be powered with the battery removed....It MUST be present) because I use that same battery type in many of my high powered flashlights. Now my understanding is that the battery provided in unprotected, meaning that it lacks safety circuitry to prevent overcharge, short circuits, and other issues that could lead to a battery fire. I would highly recommend purchasing a protected 18650 to use in this radio and yes, they DO FIT. I cannot guarantee that every brand will fit, but I was able to install two protected name brand 18650 batteries in this radio with no difficulty. Do not charge the battery unattended. Now all of THAT said, even the lower capacity 18650 battery provided with this radio should power it for a LONG time versus any AAA / AA batteries and likely even better than those that might use C or D cells. Since I can solar charge my 18650 batteries this makes it a great tool for emergency preparedness as well.Now those buttons.....Some are a bit confusing so I do find myself referring back to the operating manual at times, but that should improve with usage and familiarity.The sound quality from the speaker is quite good at this price point. It is mono of course and do not expect Bose quality, but again at this price point...I am very happy.Reception on both FM and shortwave seems to rival every other quality (And much more expensive) radio that I own. I have mixed feelings about AM. It does not seem as good as my other radios but to be fair... I really need to try to outside. It it as good as my CC Radio Plus DX? No, but it is darn close. FM reception was outstanding. On shortwave this radio easily outclassed my Sangean 909X during an indoor test. Yes, it actually did pick up more channels when in scan mode. Now some of that COULD be in how each radio's software is set up...What it selects to stop at versus what it skips. But again...at $45 after the coupon discount?!Obviously at this point I cannot speak to durability, but I can say that I am VERY pleased with my initial impressions. At this point in time I feel that this radio is a bargain at this price due to the speaker's good sound quality and surprisingly good FM and shortwave reception. I will close by saying that I thought about this radio for quite some time before I decided to make the purchase, primarily because I could not believe it would be this good at this price point.....$41 after a $15 coupon.

The reception is very good on all bands. On medium wave have gotten station 850 in New Orleans which is 920 miles away. I get the blowtorches out of NYC without signal fade, cross talk or chuffing on most nights 450 mi. away.I've owned this radio for almost a year. The issue is that occasionally (about once a month) the radio totally refuses to turn on despite having adequate battery charge. The only way to get the radio functional again is to do a factory reset on it. Fortunately, resetting it doesn't wipe the channel memory or I'd be super upset about having to keep resetting it for no apparent reason. Also, the quality control is not the best. I had to return the first radio I received because it was making an oscillation beeping noise on medium wave band. The sound quality is far superior to a Skywave radio and is a reasonable price for what you get. It's nice to be able to play your own micro SD card with your own podcasts or audio dramas. Maybe the next version of this radio will have air band in place of the defunct long wave band. I've yet to find a portable with this many bands and the air band along with it.Update 2/12/25: Being a portable radio buff, I bought the highly internet touted and around $80 QODOSEN DX-286 with the new car radio chip, so I could compare the xhdata to it. Side by side testing shows they are equal in both sensitivity and selectivity in my side by side comparison. The 286 is getting rave reviews on sites like radio Jay Allen and he's even grouped the 286 up there with the ccradio3 and the EP-Pro despite it only having Am/fm and shortwave. The 286 has an enclosed speaker back just like the d-109wb but the 109 has better low end. Either radio will give you better sound quality than the skywave. Also the 286 is a battery eater- max battery life on a 3300 Mah battery is only 15-17 hrs with about an hour a day usage on medium volume with minimal back light use. D-109wb is around double that.Just wanted to put this update out there for those who are thinking the car chip radio is worth the extra money. It wasn't in my experience, so I returned it and am happy with the d-109wb and knowing there's still nothing in it's size and price point that will top it (yet).
