a usb micro to usb c charging port and a fold out kickstand on the back the pl 520 has ssb and sync and all the features of the pl 330 and also adds a favorites button that stores the one station you tune to most often a great feature i ve only seen on a handful of radios before as well as a very useful new hidden feature we ll take a look at the pl 520 and compare it with the pl 330 and pl 320 in the pl 520 review sanyo rp 8700 multiband portable a nice radio with one big surprise sanyo was founded in 1947 and became a large manufacturer of electronic products and component parts they made many radios not only under the sanyo name but under many other names as well it is common to look inside a vintage radio and find the name sanyo inside sometimes as the manufacturer of the entire radio and sometimes on the internal components as well the rp 8700 was sold between approximately 1975 1978 and was an all out effort to offer a quality multiband portable some users report it is a world class radio and in some ways it is although not in the ways most people have noted read the sanyo rp 8700 review litemaladsp malahiteam mlite 880 portable sdr radio without a doubt the mlite 880 is one amazing little device it is a simplified derivative of the russian dsp 2 3 receivers and as such it takes a giant leap forward in terms of the ability to resolve and make less than perfect signals listenable in addition to extremely sensitive reception one of the primary reasons for this is the nr noise reduction circuit which can dramatically lower the noise floor of weak am sw signals another great feature is the real time spectrum display which allows you to view the portion of the band you are tuning within showing your desired signal along with neighboring ones there are far more features and adjustments to optimize reception than i have seen on any portable radio but i was of course eager to see how well the radio works in practical terms and there were several surprises along the way this one is a game changer read the litemalasdp malahiteam mlite 880 review prunus j 328 j 909 mini portables the tiny j 328 is not a new model but it has received a few updates since it was first introduced several years ago it is currently selling on amazon for 16 99 and is small enough to slip into a shirt pocket yet it offers fm with auto search and store 70 108 mhz sd tiff card record and play mp3 format only usb charging with a 500 mah battery 3 5mm 1 8 headphone jack aux input lock mode lanyard fm antenna and a great sounding speaker the j 909 currently 18 99 on amazon is larger but still mini sized and offers most of the features of the smaller j 328 plus it adds the am band led flashlight and a 1200 mah bl 4c battery rechargeable battery it dispenses with the lanyard fm antenna of the j 328 in favor of a traditional fm whip antenna and although it also plays sd tiff cards it does not record as the smaller j 328 does given their features what kind of performance can you get for under 20 read the prunus j 328 j 909 review raddy rf206 am fm sw bt radio the raddy rf206 offers exceptional value for the money with good performance overall it covers am from 520 to 1710 khz with 10k 9k tuning steps fm from 64 108 mhz and sw from 2 3 to 23 mhz it runs in 4 aa cells or built in ac power no external adapter needed and although my radio is marked 100 110 volts raddy has assured me it is compatible with the normal 120 volts found in the us today it can play audio from tiff cards or usb sticks it supports tf cards with a maximum capacity of 256gb and can play wma wav ape flac and mp3 formats in bluetooth tf usb music playback modes you can pause playback fast forward or rewind and select the previous or next song audio is strong and clear plus there is a 3 5mm headphone jack an external antenna jack for sw and a fold down carrying handle read the raddy rf206 review sangean wr 8 wr 9 compact am fm bluetooth radios the new sangean wr 8 wr 9 compact radios are interesting and innovative new models which fill a niche few other radios fulfill for several years i have used a few of their earlier and still available wr 7 series radios around the house but these new models represent real upgrades in several ways other than styling differences these two units share seemingly identical performance except that the wr 9 has a unique am internal antenna which offers the unusual ability to be used either horizontally or vertically i have always been impressed by sangean s radios they seem to be of the highest quality and workmanship and the new wr 8 wr 9 continue that tradition read the s angean wr 8 wr 9 review xhdata d 219 update fall 2025 in the fall of 2013 i reviewed the original xhdata d 219 am fm sw radio and noted that it was a solid performer and very competitive at its very low price currently an unbelievably low 12 76 at amazon now xhdata has introduced a new version of this which tunes in 1 khz steps and is available in two new colors green or beige for just a few dollars more the original model which is still available in black or gray is available in two versions one which tunes am in 10k steps and the other which tunes in 9k steps choose the correct version for your area 10k for the americas and 9k for the rest of the world the 10k version includes the expanded am band to 1710 khz this new version tunes in 1k steps and includes the expanded am band and is thus usable anywhere in the world i have not seen the beige model but the green is absolutely beautiful to look at and its appearance reminds me of the colorful portable radios of the late 1950 s and 60 s i really think it is very pretty see all color versions at amazon read the updated xhdada d 219 review countycomm gp 1 wb am fm weather radio the new gp 1 follows the tactical concept of many countycomm products designed to be survival tools it currently sells for 19 50 and with tax and shipping mine cost a total of 25 96 countycomm specializes in emergency preparedness gear see their full line of items at the countycomm website the gp 1 wb is described as a purpose built am fm weather band radio engineered for reliability in the harshest conditions countycomm s website goes on to describe it as compact rugged emergency ready fully backlit display night vision red am fm wb full polycarbonate body for incredible strength built for resilience designed for clarity there are several pocket portables in this category how does the gp 1 wb stack up read the countycomm gp 1 wb review philips magnavox d 2935 the 1980 s was a period of rapid development in digital radios worldwide sony was among the most well known manufacturers while the magnavox d 2935 a rebadged philips d 2935 was less well known at least here in the us available between 1981 to 1989 it was described as a travel sized portable to differentiate it from the desktop designed yet internally similar model d 2999 at a hefty 7 pounds and measuring 12 5 x 7 x 3 inches it would hardly be considered to be a travel radio today but it represents a level of performance that is in some ways not all excellent read the magnavox philips d 2935 review blast from the past a look at 5 vintage digital portables recently a reader sent me 5 radios he no longer uses and when i saw them i thought it would be fun to see how these would compare with modern radios made today the radios are the eton e5 eton e100 magnavox aw 3625 17 radio shack dx 375 and the tecsun pl 660 which was only recently discontinued each represents a different stage of radio design history and as such they make an interesting study i still have my original eton e5 and tecsun pl 660 i previously owned an eton e100 but had never seen the magnavox aw 3625 which i discovered is a rebadged philips ae3625 or the radio shack dx 375 so i was eager to check them out and compare them with some of my current reference radios some of the results were very interesting read blast from the past raddy rf757 wideband receiver raddy offers a wide range of radios including several with frequency coverage well beyond the typical multi band radio and the new rf757 is a recent addition to the line in addition to the wide frequency coverage the rf757 also offers tf card record play a universal usb c jack which functions for battery charging and pc interface with many associated capabilities in that mode plus the ability to be controlled by a smartphone to expand its already wide range of capabilities currently it s selling on amazon for 84 99 outside the us you can get it as the hanrongda hrd 757 from ali express at a lower price but without free shipping read the raddy rf757 review raddy rf750 plus multiband radio the raddy rf750 plus may be one of the most unusual radios i have seen it is a marvel of miniaturization a tiny yet solid device measuring a mere 2 ½ x 2 x 1 3 8 inches plugging in the am ferrite rod brings the height to about 3 inches this thing is small yet it has amazingly good performance it covers fm am sw weather band and features bluetooth tiff card playback plus record when used with the mobile app via an android or apple phone there are a few surprises as well read the raddy rf750 plus review deshibo ga 800 loop antenna the deshibo ga800 from goozeezoo is an update to their ga450 although it is described as being automatically tuned i think it is more accurately described as an untuned loop either way there is no tuning needed which makes remote placement possible frequency coverage is stated as 10 khz through 159 mhz which means it includes lw mw sw fm and even airband such wide coverage is unusual it is currently selling on amazon for 119 reviews i ve seen are mixed and after testing it i understand why different users have had different experiences this antenna is great in certain applications exactly how you intend to use it will determine how successful it will be for you read the deshibo ga800 review avantree soundbyte t streaming radio to earbuds btsp 860 t recently a reader suggested that i check out the avantree soundbyte t streaming radio because it has one unusual feature it can not only act as a bluetooth speaker but it can also transmit via bluetooth to a pair of supplied earbuds and this seemed like an exciting feature to try out i was interested in this because i often use an earbud style radio when i do my yard work and i use noise blocking earbuds to also shield me from the loud noise of my lawnmower whose motor sits right behind me and although this works well that earbud cable often gets caught on things as i work so it seemed that wireless buds might be a great solution the avantree soundbyte t model btsp 860 t is rich with features and we ll put it through its paces to see how well it performs read the avantree soundbyte t review sangean u7hd am fm rds hd rugged jobsite radio several years ago sangean sent me their fantastic u4 rugged jobsite radio and i was impressed not only by its overall performance but especially by its strong audio now they have introduced the upgraded u7hd radio which is in some ways the same and in some ways new and improved the original u4 will continue to be available and the choice of which is best for you will depend on exactly how you intend to use it as the two have different features both are top performers in this category read the sangean u7hd review c crane cc pocket am fm noaa weather alert radio updated feb 2025 the cc pocket radio from c crane was introduced in 2013 and has recently been updated adding new features and other improvements including the inclusion of 3 rather than 2 am bandwidths and is an excellent value at its current amazon price of 64 99 it s a walkman style radio primarily designed to be used with the included cc buds however there is also a built in speaker for utility use which can be very useful and is of particular importance if you use the radio for noaa weather alerts the cc pocket covers standard am and fm as well as the 7 noaa weather band frequencies and runs on 2 aa batteries and competes head to head with other top earbud style radios read the cc pocket review qodoesn dx 286 accessory package qodoesen is now selling an accessories package for their dx 286 and it looks like an incredibly good deal to me this package includes canvas carry bag with velcro closure telescopic whip antenna antenna cable 5 meter 16 ft 2 rubber feet battery cover 2 flip stands all for 10 which would be a good price for the whip antenna alone see this package at amazon outside the us see it at ali express ge p 990a world monitor the ge p 990a was sold between 1964 and 1967 priced at 125 and is yet another fine example of heavy duty old school design featuring a massive steel chassis housed in a beautiful two tone leather covered cabinet it is simply beautiful to look at with an attractive multi colored dial scale another heavy radio from the time when weight meant quality and this ge is no exception according to its designer conrad jutson who also was responsible for the popular p 780 series and several other projects the p 990 world monitor was ge s answer to the zenith trans oceanic but was designed to sell at a much lower price we ll take a close look to see how well they achieved their goal read the ge p 990 article pocket portables update i last reported on pocket portables in 2016 and 2022 but things in this arena continue to evolve rapidly and it was time for an update this time i collected more than 20 pocket sized radios ranging in price from under 10 to over 60 and found many surprises in today s marketplace these radios often appear under different names and and some have no model name or number at all but the trend is for ever increasing performance at lower prices as far as i know this is the largest such comparative survey of pocket radios ever done and if you re looking for a personal sized portable i think you will find this information interesting read the pocket portables review national panasonic r 2500b am sw radio the national panasonic r 2500b was sold between 1971 and 1974 and is a great example of old school portable radio design by that i mean it is solid with a heavy steel chassis and all discrete components it is big and heavy and has no fm but covers am from 525 1605 khz and sw from 1 6 to 30 mhz in 4 sw bands it uses 11 transistors and has tuned rf on all bands and features a very large tuning dial and not one but two ferrite rod antennas i also found it interesting that it says super sensitive on the front panel which is a moniker sony used from the late 50 s through the 70 s read the national panasonic r 2500b review quick shopping guide jay s personal picks for performance and value although i provide in depth reports on portable radios past and present to help you shop here is a quick way to find that perfect radio for yourself or as a gift you can always find in depth information about
