XHDATA D-808 Digital Radio Portable FM stereo/SW/MW/LW SSB RDS Air Band Multi Band Radio Speaker with ATS,LCD Display, Sleep Timer,Alarm Clock,External Antenna Black

Great compact radio with very good build quality. I bought it for monitoring air band pilot chatter and it works well for that combined with some websites. The short wave spectrum is amazing for listening to world radio broadcasts from New Zealand to Tobago. It's a fine skill as it depends on time of day and frequency but I recommend you read the website short-wave DOT info (replace DOT with . ) and the tab called propagation. The site will list all the world stations and frequencies theybarevtransmitting in , a but like the TV guide but for radio. PROS: Great quality, retractable antenna, small, built in rechargeable battery that charges with a mobile phone charger CONS: Would have been awesome if it had Bluetooth connectivity so I could link it to my wireless earphones.

So I got this XHDATA radio, (another one - I know!) but this is probably their best all round set - the XHDATA D-808. First off, the sound on this thing is really clear. The built-in speaker’s got some decent oomph to it – you’re not left straining to hear, even if there’s a bit of noise about. Using the Bandwidth button can also improve the sound. It picks up all sorts of stations too, so whether you’re after FM, MW, or all the shortwave stuff, it’s got you sorted - including Air Band, and Single Side Band - so cool for amateur radio listening & other SSB broadcasts. Size-wise, it’s quite neat - just big enough to feel sturdy but not a faff to carry around. Fits right in my small shoulder sports bag, which is a great for taking it down the allotments or on a weekend away. There’s even a 3.5mm headphone jack, so if you’re in the garden or on the bus, you can stick your headphones in and listen away without bothering folks around you. Charging it’s a doddle too – comes with a USB-C cord, and there’s a decent battery in it, so you’re not forever hunting for a plug. It lasts ages once it’s charged, mind, which is ideal if you’re outdoors a lot. It’s got some belting extras as well – there’s an automatic scan function, so it finds and saves loads of stations for you (up to 100 per band, they reckon). You can even set it as an alarm clock, which I wasn’t expecting – either a nice gentle radio wake-up or a buzzer if you’re a heavy sleeper. It’s dead handy with the time display, too – you can set it yourself or it’ll do it for you if it picks up the RDS signal (on FM). Comes with everything you’d need – USB cord, long wire antenna, battery (just remember to take that little bit of paper out before using), and even a carry bag to keep it safe. Plus, there’s a 12-month warranty, so you’re covered if anything goes wrong. All in all, it’s cracking value for money. Decent sound, loads of features, and portable enough for wherever you’re headed. I've included loads of different pictures in the review. I mean, it looks very stylish as well 👍 Also, I can only upload one video with Amazon - so did a quick shortwave scan when I was out in the garden - picking up several international broadcasters. I still haven't got through experiencing everything on the radio as there's so much to play with and enjoy! 👍😀 But... I'm so enthused about it... lol... I just wanted to tell you all about it! So - "Yes" - I would highly recommend the XHDATA D-808. In my view it's probably the best one they make, and from what I've experienced so far of it I don't think there's a better one (made by anyone) that performs well and is such a great price 👍😀 Get one today!

This is a good quality receiver that does what it says on the box. Not cheap, but worth the money. All bands work well and unit is sensitive, but not driven to distortion. Positive points..... All.... Bad points... The only negative points is that it could be a little larger and the manual needs a magnifying glass to read it... But do read the manual.. If you want to listen to shortwave, amateurs and aircraft, this is great for indoor use, unlike my Yaesu.. NOTE... I have not received anything for this recommendation. Addendum.... Still pleased and the air and is sensitive.... Biggest problem so far encountered.... Using the memory... Not intuitive... Further update.. Is it possible to turn the alarm off? Normally a short push stops the alarm and a long push cancels the alarm on all clocks.. Nope.... No matter what I do, it just keeps turning itself back on! There is nothing in the manual about it either and just to prove the point, my wife has tried and failed... This is not good design and totally unnecessary. Eventually, we found by trial and error that the AL symbol doesn't mean the alarm is on or off, there is a minute sign that I cannot even see with reading glasses on.... So much for sight impaired people..

This radio is amazing. The amount of features included in such a small package is astounding. I bought this as a DSP alternative to an analog Tecsun so I can listen to specific shortwave shows and am blown away by quality. I've seen a lot of reviews complaining about weaker stations being too quiet but this is most likely due to the bandwidth being set correctly. I find opening the bandwidth to max until I find a station I like solves that problem. No need to filter a station until you've found it. The ability to key in frequencies is a welcome addition as rolling an analog dial can get tiring after a while. The SSB is great and I've spent several nights tuning into Ham radio conversation and am very impressed with the level of reception. The battery life is equally as impressive. After one charge, I've run this radio regularly in the day and throughout the night for 3 days and it's still going. My only caveat would be the slightly non standard battery but these are readily available online as are mobile phone batteries so it's a non-issue really. If you have an interest in shortwave, radio or even air traffic control listening, this is an excellent radio which serves all in a uniquely small form factor. Similarly, if you're looking for a decent, small FM/AM radio for listening in a workshop or home, this radio provides fantastic sound quality and features for a very reasonable price.

I was looking for a portable radio I could use to (besides regular FM stuff) listen air bands and a couple of domestic radio stations on MW I can use at home and outside of home. Some SW optionally. I did a comprehensive research of options under €100, including web articles, lots of youtube reviews and found that this one and Radiwow R108D fit my needs. I gave the XHDATA a try and was positively surprised with what I've got for this price. What I like in this radio: - the overall quality. Doesn't look cheap. - perfect quality on FM. - RDS on FM (though I don't care about RDS at all). - air band reception is acceptable and isn't worse than LiveATC streams. - Squelch for air band (squelch isn't available in other bands, it is air only). It may slightly reduce the quality, but not much and it does what it should: stays silent when there is no transmission. - battery capacity. Worked for almost a week (listening around 4hrs a day) without recharging. I have a range of tools that use 18650 batteries, so replacement (if necessary) isn't a problem for me. Some people like standard batteries you can buy everywhere, I'm fine with 18650. Micro USB charger port is convenient. Keep in mind that charger isn't included in package, only short cord. - decent speaker sound for portable radio. I get a good FM stereo in headset. - SSB in SW. I'm not a huge fan of SW, but there are several stations that use SSB (either, USB or LSB) - fine tuning is a big deal, especially in SW/MW. - built-in telescopic antenna is large enough for portable radio. The package includes external (3.5mm jack, 2m long) antenna, but it make a difference (over telescopic) in SW only. - memory size: it has a lot of space to save stations in every band. What is not perfect (may be biased or is my own problem): - quite average reception quality in MW (I'm listening a couple of stations in MW). External antenna doesn't help much and it really depends on where I am in my apartments. - user manual is very short, however it was sufficient to me to find and use features I needed. The manual requires some background radio usage knowledge which may not be suitable for very beginners. Bottom line: I think this radio is one of the best on portable "under €100" radio market. It provides plenty of functions which you may not find in most of non-portable radios. In overall it exceeded my expectations. It does everything what I need and even more.

It’s not bad for £68, but the Tecsun 330 is MUCH better for that price range. Poor AGC - Each time you tune up or down the range the noise levels increase for a split second. It’s quite off-putting. My Tecsun (which is also based on DSP-chip doesn’t have this issue). Doesn’t remember USB/LSB - This is REALLY annoying. If I save some SSB channels the radio does not remember whether they’re USB or LSB (Upper or Lower Sideband). This is just not acceptable on an SSB radio. I can program a channel on USB, but if I’ve recently been using LSB and access that USB channel from memory it goes back to LSB. The ‘new’ orange display is not as good as the the white display. They reckon it’s to make the display more pleasing on the eye for night time use, but the white is MUCH more clearer through the day (which is when I use it most). There is an annoying ‘mute pause’ between every frequency when tuning up/down across the bands. So you cannot scan fast or you will miss important activity. This is the same for the Tecsun 330. However, the Tecsun 660 and 880 do not have this issue, so I don’t know why this radio does. Annoying memory management. You have to press the 0-9 keys to access your memory channels. You can’t just use the rotary tuning to go up/down the channels like u can on the Tecsun. While some people might like this, others won’t, and you should have the option to do it both ways. The 500 memories are split across the bands. So it’s a bit deceiving to say that the radio has ‘500 memory channels’. I cannot save 500 SSB Channels, just 100 LW, 100 MW, 100 FM, 100 Air and 100 SW. However, this is also the way Tecsun work, so it seems like it’s a standard thing for these Chinese radios. Overall, it’s an okay radio for the price, quite sensitive and it pulls in as good as my Tecsuns, but the above issues just make it not as good a user experience as my Tecsun, so I may end up returning it.

Good radio, works well, small and compact. The sound quality is really good. I love the clean look.

An excellent radio , it's very slightly larger then a Tecsun PL-310 ET. The Good * it has excellent SW Reception as good , in my opinion better than the PL-310 ET and as good as the PL-660 *Excellent FM reception * Excellent Air reception *Very good MW reception, much better then the PL-310 ET and vastly better then the PL-660 * It has SSB big thumbs up for that. * Easy to use * Good filter ranges give it the edge over the pl-660 ( filter wise ) The not so good *SSB can be tricky to tune. The BFO is slow to work ( might be defective , need to test more) * No Antenna attenuation which can lead to imaging, so an external one will sometimes be required. This is mainly an issue at night. * slightly noisier than the PL-660 * LW reception is crap * External antenna jack does not work with MW and LW but some D-808s seem to work with external jack, a mod can be done , search google. So while the radio is not perfect I don't think there is one in it's size and cost that I could say I would want to take with me on the go that will fit neatly in my pocket, I'm going to sell or give away my PL-310 ET as I no longer have a use for it because the D-808 has everything I need for use on the go. A reel of cable for external antenna and you're all set and the PL-660 is a bit too large for my liking when I can easily fit the D-808 in a pocket. So yes, I think it's safe to say that for me right now the D-808 is my top portable radio.

La Xhdata D-808 es una radio multibanda capaz de sintonizar, con más o menos éxito dependiendo del lugar donde la utilices, emisoras o frecuencias FM, AM, Onda Corta, Banda Aérea y Onda Larga. Un breve resumen de mi experiencia con cada banda: • La recepción 𝐅𝐌 es impecable, buen sonido, nada de ruido y si la estación lo permite la radio te indica el nombre de la misma y el nombre del programa en ese momento, gracias al RDS. Es bastante potente y te permite escuchar de forma clara emisoras situadas a 31km del lugar de recepción, sin embargo por la noche su escucha será un poco más complicada debido a interferencias de estaciones aún más lejanas. También tiene la opción de sintonizar frecuencias a partir de 64MHz. • Su rendimiento en la recepción de frecuencias 𝐀𝐌 es también destacable, incluso durante el día, pero sin embargo, su máximo potencial se obtiene de noche. Es por la noche cuando, con únicamente con la antena interna y en zona urbana, he sido capaz de captar señales como la de BBC 5 desde el sur de España de forma clara. Por lo que su potencial para el dxing no hace falta ser explicado. • La recepción de frecuencias de 𝐎𝐧𝐝𝐚 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚 es sin duda alguna el punto fuerte de esta radio. La radio te permite captar frecuencias desde 1711 khz hasta 29999khz. Gracias a la incorporación de SSB y USB se podrán oír frecuencias de radioaficionados, ejércitos, centros meteorológicos, etc. En cuanto a la recepción general de Onda Corta hay que indicar que la radio te permite ajustar el ancho de banda para obtener una mejor calidad de audio (personalmente siempre lo tengo en 4K para diluir ruido y obtener un sonido decente). No es necesaria una antena externa para la recepción de emisoras comerciales, pero sí que es recomendable especialmente si se vive en una zona urbana, aunque sólo con la antena interna se puede escuchar con buenos resultados (dependiendo de tu ubicación geográfica) Voice of América, NHK World, China Radio International, etc. • La 𝐎𝐧𝐝𝐚 𝐀𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐚 𝐲 𝐎𝐧𝐝𝐚 𝐋𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐚 en general más complicadas de captar, de nuevo dependiendo de tu ubicación, tienen un sonido un poco más débil que en el resto de bandas, con mejores resultados por la noche. En cada una de sus bandas la radio te permite guardar bastantes señales, por lo que siempre tendrás tus emisoras favoritas guardadas y podrás sintonizar sin problema nuevas estaciones. La radio también incluye una opción para alarma (que se puede desactivar pulsando varias veces el botón de apagar hasta que aparezca la palabra "on" cuando se encienda la radio). La vida de la batería es también un plus para esta radio, ya que te puede durar con un uso intenso al menos 2 semanas y media. Realmente la única pega que le encuentro es que en ocasiones el reloj de la radio se cambia solo y lo tengo que volver a configurar manualmente. Por lo tanto recomiendo su compra encarecidamente ya que verdaderamente es una muy buena radio multibandas portátil que puedes llevar contigo a cualquier lugar y sin preocuparte de la batería. Para finalizar recomiendo adquirirla cuando esté rebajada y utilizarla con una antena externa para desbloquear su máximo potencial, aunque repito que no es realmente necesario.

Radio vraiment Parfait

Bardzo fajne radio. Niestety nie nadaje się do środowiska zaszumionego jakie panuje na osiedlach czy w blokach.

Den fungerar utmärkt och har bra känslighet på FM och även KV, SSB/CW. Batterkapaciteten är mycket bra. Något besvärligt när man ska ställa in korrekt pitch för SSB-lyssning.
