Review: Terrific personal radio. Highly recommend - This is a great little personal radio with stable reception and 10 FM presets. It replaced an old analog Sony that I used when I walked and lost (Of course, I found it after I ordered this one) But this has presets and two features (other than it's digital and has presets) that I really like. You can lock the buttons so that they can't be accidentally changed by hitting something in your pocket and it defaults to turning itself off after 90 minutes, which can be over-ridden by holding the power on button for a few extra seconds when turning it on. I would recommend it whole heartedly. I really like this radio. ***UPDATE**** April 10, 2016 I have really enjoyed this radio for all the reasons the reviewers have noted: easy to use; digital; 15 presets; button locking. etc. Up to now. I usually take this on my walks and went to use it today, and it was dead. I thought it was odd, since I had just replaced the batteries a few days ago after my last walk. I replaced the batteries and tried again, and again, it was dead. I looked in the manual and found a means to reset it. That didn't work either. This thing is just dead. I can assure you, that it was not abused. It hasn't moved from my desk since my last walk, when it worked fine. So I went online to see what the warranty is on this and it's 90 days. However, not only do you have to ship it back to them in California at your expense, but there's an $8 fee fpr them to fix or replace it under warranty. It was $32 on desertcart. Not a great buy if you have to add another $12+. I am very disappointed as I really liked this radio. It's the weekend, so I will call on Monday and see what they have to say for themselves. I'm hoping they have good customer support, as it's just under 90 days from when I got this on Jan. 21, 2016. ***UPDATE*** April 13 I called them and the tech I spoke to said to leave the batteries out for a day to see it would re-set itselt. It turns out, it was a much simpler fix than that. I use rechargeable batteries. It turns out, one of them was bad. It had nothing to do with the radio; it works just fine, as it always has. I thought I had put in a different set of batteries, but I didn't, so this is my fault. I would definitely recommentd this and their tech support was very helpful in tracking down the problem.
Review: Almost Perfect - I am a letter carrier for the post-office and my pocket radio was my constant companion. In this age of MP3 players and I-pods, it would seem that the AM /FM pocket radio had become extinct. No electronics store, even in New York City could offer a reasonable replacement for my worn out AIWA CR-LD100. I thought my radio days on the route were over. In desperation I searched the web and came upon the SANGEAN DT-120. If you are looking for a pocket sized, lite-weight radio that offers outstanding reception when you are on the move, then this is it. Only slightly bigger than the AIWA but not bulky at all. The reception is outstanding and there is plenty of volumn. With 5 preset buttons for 2 FM bands and 1 AM, you get 15 presets. The controls are not complicated at all. The on/off button is at the top, on the edge, and the volume toggle is directly below it(maybe a little too close to the on/off). On the front face, 4 buttons control the band selector, x-tra bass, and manual tuning. The digital display is plenty big and highly visible. Across the top edge are the TINY and close set, preset buttons. You can easily cover two of them with one finger tip, so you need a light touch. Its the only feature that is problematic for me, but in no way is it a deal breaker. The AM receiver is quite sensitive and easily pulls in distant stations, especially at night. Which is perfect if you like to search for sporting events from local stations in far away cities. The FM stereo is superb, loud ,clear, with lots of seperation. The sound quality of the ear buds is excellent, but because I walk all day I needed to replace them with the type that hook around my ears. I use this radio all day sometimes 10 hours a day, and the battery lasts about a week and a half. I never thought I would find a radio as good as my AIWA, but the Sangean DT-120 does the job for me.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this have a clip?**
A: It does not have a clip.

A: Yess it can be worn in a arm band. You have shop for what kind.

**Q: does it have internal speaker**
A: No. It only has internal speakers that work only with ear buds. However I have the DT 400w that haslots of additional features, but it is a little bigger and a little more expensive. It has internal and external speakers and features and has great quality sound for a little radio. I love both the DT 180 and DT 400WGood Luck

**Q: There is a picture of the Sangean DT-180 [I] and a picture of the Sangean DT-180 [II] in this ad. Which one are you selling?**
A: As a previous purchaser of Sangean DT-180 Amazon asked me to respond to question. The Pic shown and the model I purchased was the DT-18(II). The (I) model will have "FM STEREO" in white letters below the four buttons on the front; the (II) series is plain black. The difference between the (I) and (II) is the features....(II) has a clock, direct recall for station presets, adjustable tuning for distant stations. Earphones that are part of the pack are cheap so plan on buying another set, but the radio is working great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic portable radio, light and svelt
*by O***H on May 2, 2012*

July 2015. Revisited this review. The radio was purchased in 2/2012 so I have been using it averaging 3 times a week for the last 3 1/2 years, mostly for jogging or walking (up to 3 miles). Still using the same set of AAA rechargeable NiMH batteries. Still working perfectly. Still using the same iPad ear buds from over 3 years ago. I would say I am extremely happy with this purchase. The unit is light and reliable and produces nice sound as long as you use good headphones or ear buds. Highly recommended. Old review from 2012: I have been using this delightful little radio for the last three months, mostly for listening to AM stations while walking/jogging (too bad iPod doesn't have AM radio). As other reviewers have mentioned, the ear bud head set is horribly useless. I threw it away after one day. Switched to an Apple ear bud from my Ipad ($30) and the improvement was immediate. I would have rated this product 5 stars if it had a more serviceable ear phone. It pulls in AM and FM signals from stations in Burbank and beyond 40+ miles away (I live in Orange County, CA), no static, no dropped signal. The FM stereo fidelity is pretty good. The first AAA alkaline lasted about two months with average 4-5 hours of usage per week. Have since installed a rechargeable AAA and still going strong after 3 weeks. The station preset buttons are very useful; buttons a little small but really not a big deal. Highly recommend this radio if you don't mind shelling out another $30 for an ear phone upgrade (that would make this radio $70).
