I have had the ATS-909 for three weeks now. I love it. from Amazon.com I bought the Sangean ATS-909 in 1997 and took it with me while backpacking around the world (93 countries). Sometimes I hated it because of the weight and size but at night when I was alone in my tent or with a crowd of people in a Hostel this radio has worked flawlessly for me. from Amazon.com is quite important to my family. Thanks for the great product Sangean! from Amazon.com First let me say that it is certainly NOT deaf at all on the extremely long whip as stated in many other reviews! Now on sale at Amazon for only $ 219.99 it is an excellent bargain (including shipping). I have only had my unit for two weeks, but overall I find it to be an excellent and very intuitive and much better sounding radio than the famous Sony ICF-SW7600GR (which I have also used for over a year) and I find the reception comparable, but the Sangean is much more intuitve and user friendly to operate even without the touted Sony synchronous detection circuit. I have only three very small criticisms so far and I will update this review as I continue to regularly use the ATS-909 on all of the available bands: from Amazon.com The Sangean ATS 909 is my very favorite radio. And that's saying something, since I have a number of them. from Amazon.com I purchased this radio several years ago and found it to be a really fine performer. Excellent sw sensitivity, good am and excellent fm as well....considering the ATS 909's rather small size. Sound is quite good, too, for it's size. from Amazon.com I've had a 909 for 10 years. It's gotten several thousand hours of use, has fallen on the floor a few times, and is still going strong. from Amazon.com I am well pleased with the ATS 909 and will not hesitate to recommend someone else to buy it. It is a very good portable radio and really what makes this radio is the (guess) 20ft uncoiling antenna. from Amazon.com The 909 is the ultimate SW table top/semi-portable radio, period! Widely sold by RadioShack as the DX-398, this radio has it all, IF YOU SET IT UP PROPERLY. from Amazon.com The 909 is the ultimate SW table top/semi-portable radio, period!
