Digital camera reviews of Sangean PR-D5 Portable Radio with Digital Tuning and RDS
Digital camera Review: "You'd have to wait, but you could hear it on the A.M. Radio"
Summary: 5 Stars
For several years now, I'd been using a small Sony 3AA, single speaker radio whilst in my work truck. With certain engine, road, and wind noises, it was difficult to hear it even on loud volume settings. Just got this new Sangean as a birthday gift this month, and WOW! The RDS function is new to me and very nice. I see the station ID, their tagline, artist, and name of song as it repeatedly scrolls. I alternate between music on the FM side, and Laura and Savage on the AM side. No issues w/ volume in the trucks whatsoever. If it's dusk or dark outside, switching stations w/ the preset buttons activates a nice orange color on the LCD for a little while. The reception is excellent even though I leave the telescopic antenna in its retracted position. It has four little rubber pads on the bottom of the unit; I believe the Sony had none. The stereophonic separation and detail is better than I thought despite the close proximity of both speakers. On a new set of alkalines, I get about 10-13 calendar days of use - and that's about 8+ hours of use per day. I like the feature that automatically sets the time when you hold down a button for about 2 seconds - based on info from the station. If it had 10 FM presets, not 5, that would've been a touch better; but overall I'm very pleased with this unit. I'd not heard of Sangean before, but would strongly consider their other products. In fact, I'll probably get one more for picnics, beach outings, poolside fun, and so forth in the near future!
Summary of Sangean PR-D5 Portable Radio with Digital Tuning and RDS
Hands down one of the best performing portable radios you will find today. With its whoppingly large 200mm ferrite antenna, its dual 2.5" speakers, and the RDS text function you would be hard pressed to find another portable radio that offers so much for so little. This lite and powerful radio is capable of being powered by the included AC adapter, 6 x 'C' batteries, and optional DC power you have the flexibility a portable should have. We could talk all day about its features and performance, but think that you are the best judge. Listen and learn what good radio is.
