  • This is my review of the Sangean HDR-14 HD/FM/AM Portable Radio. I bought it at Amazon for $71.55 plus tax. Here are the links to the radio band scans that I performed prior to this review.

    Great review as usual Michael, it’s practically a no brainer at this point that you’ll post a good review. I love this radio, got it a few months ago refurbished. So many options in the menu. A couple things I think they should add is a Reset Hole like the Radiwow R-108, an actual dial that has 1 KHz steppingstones on AM.

      Thank you Luke. A reset button would be a good idea. On the AM, it can be set in 9 KHz steps (522-1620, 522-1629 & 522-1710) or 10 KHz (520-1710) but not in 1 KHz. That would be nice though.

    Very good information on this radio and good demonstration. All the other you tube reviews didn't really demonstrate the clarity of this radio. I had the insignia brand before this and got ripped off cause it cost me $100 and lasted less than a year. The sound kept getting weaker and weaker until it was just static. Don't know if I should get a warrantee on Amazon. Was going to get it refurbished but that's only a 3 month warranty And I don't know if it will have a plug.

      Thank you Fred. I had two versions of the Insignia tabletop HD radio. Some of the buttons stopped working properly on the first one. Segments of the antenna came off on the second one. I no longer have either of them. As for the Sangean HDR-14, it doesn't hurt to have a warranty from Amazon just for the extra coverage.

      Since Shortwave is very expensive to broadcast on and there isn’t a large number of listeners the only broadcast in North America on Saturday Nights 6-8PM central. In the summer months they move frequencies.

      You're welcome ZG. I'm glad you liked the review. I listened to some of the Mighty KBC broadcast earlier tonight. By the way, KBC is on Saturdays 7-9pm Eastern, 5-7pm Mountain. During daylight savings time, it airs one hour later because UTC time never changes.
