Review: It's a simple radio that performs very well! - If you're looking for an easy to use, simple AM/FM radio with excellent performance, you should definitely consider the PR-D6BU from Sangean. This radio still uses an actual analog tuning capacitor, as opposed to the DSP based designs nearly all other radios have moved to. The result is a radio that tunes as you'd expect an analog tuner to work, without the "notchy" tuning behavior seen in competing radios. Don't let the compact size and small rubber antenna fool you. This radio is very sensitive and reasonably selective. It's also extremely easy to use, with easily understood basic controls. Beyond the tuner, volume and power/bandswitch controls, there are only two more controls for separate bass and treble adjustments. While the headphone jack is wired to play through both speakers of a stereo headset, this radio does not receive FM stereo broadcasts. Battery life seems quite good. It's still going strong on the same set of batteries I put in when I bought it several months ago. The only feature I'd consider adding to this set would be a dial light.
Review: I am SO SO SO PLEASED with this radio! - Sangean held up to all the rave reviews I read. The sound clarity for the size of this radio is way beyond acceptable. Tunes in lots and lots of stations and holds the signal. Also LOVE that this radio has treble and bass dials. You can listen to talk stations and distinctly discern what is being said, and then dial back the treble and add some bass for music. Can't ask for more in a reasonably priced portable radio. What a great value for the money!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there a way to plug an external diapol antenna where the rubber duck antenna plugs in. Would it overload to much?**
A: Not sure how you'd hook up a dipole to this radio, but you can definitely use a long wire.

The way I did it was using a wire and a electrical ring terminal. Make sure to find a ring terminal with a hole that will fit the threaded part of the PR-D6 antenna. Crimp and/or solder the wire to the ring terminal. Once that is done, put the threaded part of the antenna through the hole in the ring terminal, and then screw the antenna into the radio. After that you can run the long wire anywhere you want.

**Q: does it tell you what type of converter to buy instead of batteryies/**
A: Below is a link to the proper power cord for this radio.

**Q: With the volume turned down completely, I still could hear the noise from 3ft away. Is it normal for this radio?**
A: Apparently. It is not the best radio

**Q: What are the dimensions of this radio?**
A: According to Todderbert's review on YT, it is 6.75 inches wide by 4.75 inches high by 2.5 inches deep.

### ⭐⭐ Could've been a great little radio, but the noise floor is so loud, the unit is unacceptable.
*by D***N on December 31, 2016*

It's very common that when you turn on an analog AM/FM radio with the volume all the way down, you hear a slight hiss coming from the speaker(s). It's simply from the electronics being on, and is called the "noise floor". With most radios, it's that normal, quiet, smooth hiss that is hard to hear if you're more than a foot away. Not so with the PR-D6. It's absolutely horrible. With the radio on, and volume all the way down, you're treated to a loud, rough and scratchy noise floor that sounds like the cheapest electronics possible were used. It's easily heard from three feet away using AM, FM, antenna on, antenna off, inside the house, outside the house... doesn't matter. It's the radio itself making the noise. If you then turn up the volume to a low listening level, the noise from the electronics is still so loud that it's almost equal to the signal. Just want to make sure that sinks in to anyone reading... a slightly bigger than pocket-sized radio that's perfect for playing at low volume close to you, and you can't because the noise floor is so bad. You could if you had to, but it would suck. This is most definitely NOT due to any kind of external interference like RFI, EMI, or weather conditions affecting the signal. It's the PR-D6 making the noise all by itself. I have decades of experience with many analog, and digital AM/FM radios, guitar amps, PA systems, recording studio equipment, and also have radios sitting next to me right this minute that do not make this noise. It's a shame because this is a very nice looking radio, has good sound for a little handheld thing, the bass and treble controls actually work and are an excellent feature, the dial indicator is calibrated well, good sensitivity and selectivity, feels sturdy and weighty, etc. It has everything going for it! But the noise level of whatever crappy components used inside truly bring the PR-D6 from what should've been a 5 star review, and a good value at the price, to a 2 star review, and not worth what I paid. This is a real disappointment, and frustrating since this was to be a late Christmas gift to someone who appreciates radios. I am not setting my expectations too high as I have cheaper radios with a normal noise floor. My only hope is that I got a defective unit that can be replaced with a good one. But if they're all like this, I'll be returning it for something else.
