Is there any way to receive noaa or weather band on this unit?
See here's the deal - I say buy it. If we don't buy these radios, they will stop making them and then we're screwed. It's not going to kill your budget and you could always gift them.
I wish CCRANE would make something like this. I have a few CCRANE radios but I need something with dual speakers for stereo.
Hello, does this radio come with batteries included in the box? Greetings to you from Egypt. I wish you a beautiful day
Can this radio word during a nuclear war?
i noticed thay change the volume dile on the cc pocket in 2023 the volume dile has no start point
i noticed thay change the volume dile on the cc pocket in 2023 the volume dile has no start point
I always enjoy your videos. Best wishes from the San Francisco Bay Area.
Can you do a troubleshooting video on the radio. Mine keeps shutting off automatically after a few seconds. I also tried resetting it and that does not seem to work either. The owners manual is not helpful.
If you are using new batteries, then it is most likely a short on the PCB. I wouldn't know where to start, or if it is a simple fix. Did batteries ever leak in the radio? water damage, ect? items to consider when trouble shooting an issue like this.
@@todderbert No, it is a brand new unit. No battery leakage. Is there another button that needs to be held down when pressings the reset button? Thank you for replying.
What's the difference between the 7-2850A and the 7-2850D?
The further down the alphabet the newer the radio revision.
Would you say the D-808 is better than the tecsun pl368.
Thanks. Great info. A little distracting however, the way you talk in a flirtatious manner while gently bouncing on the bed on your knees having a mock pillow fight with girlfriend, careful to not talk much above a whisper lest you wake the parents. If I didn't know any better I'd think you were discussing the new Barbie phone rather than a military looking shortwave radio. Good stuff. Thanks.
I have one
You need to get yourself one of those small swivel stands.
Hello how are you? the channel is very good. You have to get a Panasonic RF-1010 to try. Ask, which do you prefer, the Panasonic RF-505 or the RF-511? Greetings Juan Argentina
I like the style and reception of the RF-511, but the speaker audio of the 505.
@@todderbert Thank you! Do you mean reception on both AM and FM?
@@Juan-kz3rp Yes.
😂😂😂
This is the same radio as the HanRongDa c919.
Hej Todderbert thanks for the bandscans oh yes XHDATA or the Sihuadon D-808 is a great radio and i use mine Sihuadon D-808 very often take care Todderbert and have a nice monday.
I have this radio. It is my favorite radio out of all the radios I own.
I also have this radio. This is a very sensitive radio, extremely selective.
Just bought a blue one. Great!!
I rate this radio 📻 a five star 🌟. Just for you!! Your friend, Jeff!!
To me, station 🚉 presets are radio 📻 stations, preprogrammed into the radio at the factory 🏭. Any other presets are what we have programmed into the radio manually. Your friend, Jeff.
I bought one from Japan but when I got back home to Canada I realized the FM radio band doesn’t cover all the frequencies. 😢
i plan to get this for either this summer or my birthday (September 30,2024), i saw this video several times because this wants to replace or keep my Prunus J-166 radio, but i like the look of this Sangean walkman, but Toddlebert , you did a great job receiving a lot of stations with, both on Amplitude and Frequency Modulation Bands!! Sincerly, Lincoln Loud
So, are you reviewing the radio or the Terk antenna???
I would have bought the Raddy RF919 if I only could get past its cyberpunk, industrial/military equipment looks. It reminds me of a sophisticated communications device from some science fiction movie. That wide backlit green LCD panel is conveys so much information and the secondary color LCD screen looks like a signal tracking monitor. All-around backlit push buttons? Awesome. This Raddy would have been at home aboard the fictional deep space mining ship _Nostromo_ in the classic 1979 sci-fi horror movie _Alien_ 😀 They just had to ruin the RF919's looks by putting a speaker grille from of some grotesque looking, early 1980s boombox. 📻😑
I love the old school military Radio look the c919 has
Hi 👋
Hello well i have to say im really diappionted in the stick not much of an improve. But thanks. RON Z. WA3090SWL.
Never understood why people gave Maglite sh!t, my 35 year old one still works. Did do the LED upgrade though. Yes there are higher lumen lights out there, I had 2 and they are broken. Plus they require expensive batteries. 192lm is great for in and around the house and general camping. Eyeballing a blue one for my son, nib on second hand market.
Looked at the cc pro on Amazon and it says frequently returned item.
I wonder if they every give a count, could have been a bad batch..it happens, otherwise everyone I know that has this radio is thrilled with it.
My friend is there any Arabic radio channel you can get insider the US ?
Sometimes, but on Shortwave.
It's interesting, OM0ET's review found the internal antenna worked better than the stick. It sounds as if you found it a bit better. Unit variation?
He tested his toward dusk/evening. A daytime test is ideal. I noticed it had slightly less noise versus the internal, which was indeed stronger than the external, but with an increase in internally generated RFI. Even less noise on the external stick using the Terk to remove the RFI.
Wait till you hear it with a C.Crane Twin Coil attached, oh boy is it something special :)
That is a bucket load of İnternal noise. The radio needs a serious re work before I'd consider buying one.
Yes, it is bad on MW. The other bands don't suffer from this. Possibly LW, but I can't test that here in the Midwest. I'm getting a different unit, from a different company, and we will see if it has the same issue.
@@todderbert If you're getting the HanRongDa C919, it's also noisy on MW, I have one and I didn't get the free antenna with mine. They're available to purchase for £12.🙄
Thank you!
Hej thanks for the video and interesting external loopstick demo with the Raddy RR-919 take care Todderbert and have a nice evening.
Hej Todderbert tanks for the review the Jeespow batteries interesting batteries interesting and it is interesting when new brands appear on the market, but these seem to be good batteries take care Todderbert.
Hi todderbert (me longtime subscriber). My Sangean 909 has stopped working after many years of faithful service (we suffered through a bad electrical storm). Knowing the quality level of Sangean radios, is this a worthy replacement for a 909? The Raddy has many features, but is it a good performer on SW?
Not as good as a 909X , i'm not a fan of the X2 on SSB. The RF919 may get a performance upgrade on soft muting. If it becomes a no mute while tuning device, then the RF919 would be hard not to recommend to even a die hard SSB fan.
May I ask what Loopstick is? Your friend, Jeff.
Google “Loopstick antenna”
you should do a series teaching how to use the radio features like uhf, vhf, airband, single side band, long wave, short wave... differences, what are they, how to use them, when to use them... for us we only know about am and fm
I may in the future. I'm currently swamped with radios to review first :)
Does the ap control work with iPhones?
yes
