if you are looking to buy an am-fm radio with shortwave DO NOT BUY THIS RADIO. despite the advertising there is NO AM BAND ON THIS RADIO!!
Surprising
I've long been a shortwave fan, but the price of shortwave units has seemed prohibitive to me until I found this Sangean unit. The reception is surprisingly good for something so small and portable. It's attractive enough enough that I can leave it in the guest bedroom, on the nightstand for the use of my guests, and small enough that I can take it with me when I travel.
Naturally you're not going to get a lot of power out of it, but I've had much larger, more expensive shortwave units which performed at about the same level, so I have no complaints with the Sangean. It was a good buy.
Excellent! Just Excellent!
This radio is awesome. I live all the way in the country and to get a good reception on a radio station here where I live is next to impossible. But with this Sangean SG-622, not only do I pick up perfect receptions of my local radio stations but I also pick up excellent receptions of national and international stations. I pick up stations from Canada, France, Japan, Cuba, etc. I just love this radio. And the low price is unbelievable. I'm new into shortwave radio and I know I will remain a shortwave radio fan for a very long time. Thanks, Sangean, for creating such an excellent product with a small price tag to go along with it.
