Title: Worthless piece of junk
Product review: I purchased the Sangean DT-210v based on the favorable reviews on Amazon.com. What I got was a worthless piece of junk. First, the earpieces are the size of megaphones. Unless your ears are the size of caves, the fit is so ergonomically uncomfortable there is no way you can wear them for any extended period of listening. I had to use my iPod earbuds, instead. The AM band is totally worthless. In the AM band, this radio can only pickup some local stations in my area (Sacramento) At best, the reception of these local stations is weak and statically distorted. My primary reason to buy this pocket radio is for listening to AM talk radio and sports. The radio does a better job on the FM and TV bands. Reception of local stations on these bands is adequate. Well, what can I expect from a $43 radio, right? I'm still shopping for a good pocket radio with strong AM reception. Any recommendations?
