Review on πŸ“» Sangean HDR-14: The Ultimate Portable HD Radio/FM Stereo/AM in Standart Black by Liang Chi-en ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good product, not disappointed.

I found a radio receiver Hyundai H-PSR130 - 440. Ordered in . expect 10 days. But something went wrong . It turned out that they were not in stock, it is not known when and where they will be, Therefore, they called me and offered to return the money, and apparently in order not to lose the client - a more decent option, for decent money 690 (and they gave a discount of 200, total 490). With next day delivery after payment… I recommend to use. BUT 1. To improve the reception of distant or weak radio stations, when using outside the city (less interference), you need to attach a piece of wire to the telescopic antenna, the longer the better. 2. Use better with AA batteries, such as GP 2700 mAh. 3. Make and install plugs on the memory card, usb, power, headphone connectors. I just sealed it with masking tape, the adhesive tape is certainly stronger, but it spoils the view with the remnants of glue when removed. General recommendations - Be sure to keep all receipts and other documentation for the online order, as well as the box and all packaging materials. - Before you pick up the order at the point of issue, check its serviceability. T. K. often there is no power source in the kit - take the batteries with you to the point of issue of orders. Returning a defective one can be more difficult than buying one. In . I had to go first to take it for a check, and then also for money through half the city, extra costs - 160. This is without transfers. - Even if it seems to you that it is you who are to blame for the breakdown, still take it under warranty and insist on a replacement or a refund.

Pros
  • What is interesting in it: 1. Wide band: Soviet VHF + Western FM 64-108MHz. Captures TV, AM, and 6 HF bands. There is a slot for micro sd and usb memory cards. Checked VHF+FM. In an apartment in the southwest of St. Petersburg, it takes 45 stations, captures the meter part of the TV range. AM receives 2 stations. From a USB source reads norms. From micro SD cards - reads norms, only it must be formatted to FAT 2. power supply: powered by 3 AA batteries or the same batteries, or a small battery that is included. There is no power supply, but you can use a suitable one for 5 volts. I found a couple of pieces with the same batteries in my collection of phones. Only the charger connectors are not suitable, but this is not a problem, you can cut the plug and connect + and - directly to the terminals of the battery box, or resolder . When you connect the usb-charger, the "Charge" light turns on, I checked the charge period from scratch. 5 hours passed, the "charge" light did not turn off, the "power" light turned on after the power supply was turned off. At the same time, the battery is charged. The receiver works from the charger even when the battery is removed. I checked the battery for capacity: it lasts for 6 hours at medium volume 3. Included: receiver, battery, usb power cord, for charging AB, hand cord. description, warranty card. 4. The packaging is solid, box + bubble bag. + everything is additionally packaged for delivery. 5. Payment by credit card through the store's website. Quality execution. good plastic. The sound is quite satisfactory. On the side is a built-in flashlight with 6 LEDs. Bright light. There is a headphone output, mono. It's much better to listen with headphones. Sensitivity, selectivity and other special parameters were not measured.
Cons
  • Power supply included or no AA batteries There is no jack for connecting an external antenna.
