 Nice little radio August 18, 2008

I've only had it for a few weeks, so I can't comment on long-term durability.
Nevertheless, this little radio is a good design and it appears solidly made.
It is too big for backpacking, but it is fine for a day at the beach or a picnic.
The dial lights up when you touch a button, so you can tune and set features in the dark, clock radio, sleep-timer, etc.
I paid $58 delivered to my door, and I am quite satisfied.
A Fun Reliable TRAVEL radio August 14, 2008
I recently read analysis of the Sangean PR-D5 vs. the Sangean PR-D7 radios, these reviews are pure crap and miss the point: These two Sangean radios target different market niches. The PR-D5 is essentially a table radio while the PR-D7 targets folks that need a radio for travel. I'm sure the engineers at Sangean see it this way!!!
The Sangean PR-D7 has a clean crisp sound with very low noise floor on AM and FM dials, a great improvement over Sangean radios of similar size such as the ATS-505 or the ATS-909. BTW, I've tuned in all the major stations in the greater Phoenix area without a problem including the hard to catch 89.5, a classical station.
I have been very surprised at the overall performance of the PR-D7 radio and listen to this radio daily. The Sangean PR-D7 ($58) does 90 percent of what the Trivoli Songbook does at 25 percent of the Songbook's $200 price tag.
Still, the PR-D7 needs a multi-voltage AC adapter and a lock switch to be a complete global travel radio (like the Sangean ATS-606). Also, when traveling, cloth pouch would be a nice touch.
One of the things I like about this radio are the controls, easy to learn and use, plus you can see the frequency and time on the disply.
 Good quality portable radio July 3, 2008

I work in an older building that has metal walls which limits reception for radios (although I do have a window). This radio is very solid, has great reception, and a good clear sound. I started using it with regular batteries, however the radio drained these very quickly so now I am using the rechargeable batts. They seem to last longer. I would highly recommend this radio, it's worth the extra $$.
