 My mom loves it! June 9, 2008
I bought his item for my mom. She said she wanted an ipod, but then found out that ipods don't have AM radio (nor do any other mp3 players that I could find)...since she listens to AM radio almost exclusively (I doubt she knows what an mp3 is) I got her this. It was billed by one reviewer as the ipod of portable radios, so I bought it. She raves about this radio. It is lightweight, holds a charge for a long time, takes only one AAA battery. It has a sleep function and turns itself off after an hour or so to save batteries. She also loves that it also gets tv audio reception.
She doesn't like the earbuds and uses some cheap foam headphones. I have listened to it myself (with the crappy headphones) and it has really great sound quality for a device this size. I'm sure with the earbud or some even better headphones, the sound quality is outstanding.
She thought I spent a lot more than I did... I highly recommend.
If they could add an mp3 capability to it, I would buy one for myself...
 Reception is justnot great February 10, 2008

I bought the Sangean DT-180V AM/FM/TV Band Pocket Radio to replace a Sony digital pocket radio that aged ungracefully. I do not know how the Sangean will age yet, but the reception is a major disappointment. To be clear about it, it is only used to listen to an NPR FM station in a major city. No AM stations, no obscure radio station, no out of the way towns or remote locations. No mater where I walk, reception is consistently not good, and significantly worse than what I had with the Sony radio (which was not perfect either, but definitely reasonable). For lack of motivation to purchase another Sony radio and after not finding a better option my conclusion is that the only solution is to listen to the "radio" via podcasts or other forms of digitally downloaded content.
Good Radio January 10, 2008
Good Radio- good reception, light clear. Negative, lacks a belt attachment, a bit plasticky and buttons a bit fiddly. Overall though, very good
Near perfect portable radio December 10, 2007
I own two other Sangean portables and one Sony Sports radio. This one is the best. It's perfect for your shirt or coat top pocket. Preset tuned stations are buttons on the top of the radio making them easy to get to. The size and display is perfect for pocket size. Sound quality, AM/FM, have not been compromised from previous larger models (which is somewhat remarkable for AM reception since AM reception requires as large as possible built in "bar" antenna). A single AAA battery lasts forever. I don't use the bass boost, too strong for my tastes or my favorite earplugs. Standard earplugs are just "OK".
Fantastic December 1, 2007

Fantastic. Best reception I have ever had with a tv radio. It smokes Sonys version in my opinion.
