XHDATA D219 Radio On Battery AM FM SW For Household Outdoor Camping Hiking PortableRadio Grey

I love this little radio, it's class. Great sound, performance and no problem finding a station. Definitely great value for money.

Perfect , i cannot fault this radio at all for the price. Looks good, sounds good,very very sensetive and picks up lots of stations right across the bandspread wether that be fm/am or sw band. The tuning and volume control is very smooth and solid in use, i absolutely love it. Now if they could add ssb , ext ant, a light on the dial and airband to this model, then i would happily pay more money for it. If you want a very cheap but excellent receiver , this is the one to buy .

It looks bigger in the photo, so check the dimensions! The look and feel externally is very good, and is of high quality. My application is only for extreme emergency situations, so not ordinary use. The requirement requires reliability, and lack of digital stuff (which will fail in case of EMP for example). The sound is nice and clear on FM even down to 3.4 V. If sound quality is not an issue then it ran down below 3 V, which is very impressive. The spec says it takes 300 mA at 5 V. Even at high volume it was only drawing 100 mA at 5 V, with 50 mA being a more realistic current. The low voltage operating means it will certainly work on rechargeable NiMH AA batteries, and at 50 mA current it will give good battery life. I didn’t find a lot of activity on the 9 short-wave bands. The AM band was limited to above 522 kHz, which was a bit disappointing as I wanted to try picking up 198 kHz (Droitwich). There is an external power connector (which I was using to check the operating voltage). Frustratingly they don’t say what the connector is other than “DC jack”. (I would not call it a “jack” given the female innermost connection). You can see the pin on the radio body which the power connector mates with, but it is too deep in the socket to measure with callipers. I guessed that it was a 1.1mm inner diameter, 3.5mm outer diameter connector. That did not fit as the inner pin was too large :-( 1.3 mm inner diameter, 3.5 mm outer diameter worked. But that meant I had spent an extra £6 to get the right connector :-( That has to lose a star. Given the application, I think that wrapping it in several overlapping layers of aluminium kitchen foil is a cheap improvement for long term storage.

smashing little radio good quality and sound and reasonable priced my husband takes it to his allotment to listen to Carlisle Utd. playing

Tremendous value for money, the sound is much more clear and loud than you might expect. A quality product. Overall it feels like it should cost 3 or 4 times the price. SW and FM/AM.

This beautiful minty green radio is stylish, fashionable, and easy to carry around. I've had this for a couple of weeks so I've had a chance to test drive it out and about. And, as with other radios in the XHDATA range it is robust, powerful, and well built. Most importantly, it is very easy to use - as demonstrated by my good self in the back garden 😀👍 So, if you're looking for a handy sized radio for trips to the beach, going on holiday - I would highly recommend this lovely minty green XHDATA D-219.

OK for a cheap radio, would have appreciated an SMA antenna port too, but I guess you can't have everything. Not wildly sensitive indoors, has a bit of noise on all SW stations that it can pick up.

Use this for working on site ,great reception, good battery life ,obviously not a top class sound due to its size but acceptable

Très bonne petite radio 👍🏻👍🏻

Battery operation does not work

Excellente petite radio à un prix très modique qui fait le job . Qualité de réception exceptionnel que ce soit en fm , ondes moyennes, ondes courtes . Très satisfait de mon achat.

في البداية اشتغل لكن اصبخ يتوقف عن الاشارة والصوت

Mi sono sempre piaciute le radio, e ne possiedo una dozzina. Mi sono imbattuto in questa, e pur con un po' di scetticismo, considerato il basso prezzo, l'ho acquistata. È davvero ottima! Pur essendo di piccole dimensioni, riesce a esprimere un suono molto pastoso e un volume che stupisce. C'è la possibilità di introdurvi una scheda, na io non ne possiedo e non sono interessato a questa funzione. Riceve benissimo in FM con un'abtenna molti efficace. Posso davvero assicurarvi che si tratta di un piccolo gioiello ad un prezzo irrisorio.
