Product didn't last very long I bought the Sangean ATS-404 for my wife for Christmas 2004. I found the sound output rather amazing for such a small package. AM reception wasn't great but adequate. FM was fine. SW left much to be desired. My wife was born and raised in Africa and I bought this radio with the idea she might pickup stations from South Africa or Kenya. We could get very few stations at all and none from Africa. <br /> <br />And the worst has been after less than six months use I found the radio sitting in a pool of "radio blood" this morning. I suppose some large capacitor inside leaked (no, it wasn't batteries). So now it doesn't work. Seems like a lot of money to spend on what is essentially a small FM transistor radio. <br /> <br />If you have to buy Sangean, better spend some extra money on a service policy. Better yet, buy anything but Sangean.	2	818 days ago
Good for the casual listener - better radios out there for the $$ Hi folks its Vince the radioman . I have a large selection of radios and love to do compares and share my thoughts. This radio is good for the casual listener who doesn't want to spend a lot of money but would like to hear some SW along with AM/FM . The FM section is the best part of this radio .The AM section is filled with images and noise for the DXers out there . For local AM its pretty good.The built in sound and sound slection modes are surpisingly good. The overall construction and quality is fair at best and the radio is a battery hog . The SW section is fair. If you want to hear the big broadcasters , ok , anything else is static. There is no fine tuning . The YB300 and the Eton e 100 are far better for tuner sensativity and battery life.Its not a bad radio but others are better. How about 2 and half stars.	3	818 days ago
Great radio for the money! This radio is the best of its type for the money. The Sangean 505 gives you SSB and a nice fine-tuning knob, but it is considerably more expensive, and also quite a big larger. If all you want is a good, small, AM/FM, basic shortwave radio with a speaker and memory, you can't beat this. I find its reception to be quite good, on all 3 bands. As far as battery use, it works very smoothly with rechargables. It has a 3-segment battery indicator that displays when you first turn it on. When only 1 segment is lit, it means you are getting toward the end (maybe about 1 hour left). At that point, you can charge a second set of batteries and install them when it finally dies. You can also just disregard the battery indicator and wait for it to die, and then charge the second set. As soon as the battery power gets too low, the radio shuts off, but still retains the time and memory station settings. It can run in this low-power mode for hours. In my case, I had 4 nicads in it that died, and it took me 6 hours to charge 4 NiMHs that I use as the 2nd set. The radio's time and memory settings were still intact when I finally installed the NiMHs (you have 3 minutes to make the actual switch). Very nice!	5	818 days ago
failed miserably memory feature doesn't work, sounds a loud 'chirp' constantly after one month of use.	1	818 days ago
Good Thing They Sell it as AM/FM Because SW is Lacking The Sangean ATS-404 is a budget minded travel portable designed for the business or vacationer on the go who wants to take a small receiver along for the trip. The radio is touted as an AM/FM stereo portable primarily, although the unit also is considered an entry level shortwave portable. The AM sensitivity and selectivity on this receiver is only fair, and if you are close to a transmitter, the receiver can be overloaded and spurious (secondary) signals will appear as you scan the band. FM is adequate, but the receiver is also prone to overloading in areas near FM transmitters, with stations appearing in places they do not belong. The shortwave performance on this receiver indicates that band was an afterthought, much like some boom boxes used to include one long shortwave band for novelty value. Even reception of strong signals available to North American shortwave listeners such as Voice of America, Radio Canada International, BBC World Service, Radio Havana Cuba and Deutsche Welle were not all they could be. The reception of good quality signals on shortwave requires a decent antenna, and the antenna on this receiver won't cut it. Attempting to hook up an external antenna overloads the receiver. If you are looking for a travel portable with AM & FM reception, this is an adequate choice, but if you want a receiver that can competantly handle shortwave, choose a higher end Sangean model or a unit priced at $99 or above with digital readout. You'll be far happier.	2	818 days ago
