Review: Absolutely fantastic! - Such a good radio!
Review: I bought the ATS-909X2 with firmware version 073. I also own a Panasonic RF-B65 and a Sony ICF-SW100 SW receivers. In my opinion over all - the Sangean equals or exceeds the performance of the older receivers. Pros - The display size and backlighting. The overall sound quality - comparable to the RF-B65. Sensitivity is on par or slightly better than the other receivers. The adjustable bandwith - missing on the older sets. Number of memories and longer alpha tags. Adjustable squelch for all bands - very nice on the aircraft band. No "chuffing" or audio muting while manually tuning ( Hooray!) Selectable tuning speeds. Multiple alarms and sleep timer. RDS decode on FM. S-Meter is the nicest of the 3 radios. Cons - Like some other reviews have pointed out placing your hand near the antenna causes interference from the display driver circuits. One shouldn't touch the antenna for proper operation anyway! Also the audio levels between AM, FM and SSB modes is rather large. Not a show stopper but annoying.... Overall this radio is my go-to for portable and casual listening. I won't get rid of my RF-B65 or the ICF-SW100 just yet, but they will not get as much use as they used to. While listening one afternoon I stumbled across an amateur station from the Galapagos Islands on the 12M ( 24MHz) amateur band. I tested all 3 radios to see how they compared. The 909X2 was the best. The sensitivity was equal to the Sony but the fine tuning was much better for SSB copy than the Sony. I went down to the ham shack and worked him. He was an S-5 on my Icom IC-7410 with a multi band fan dipole up at 25 feet. I had armchair copy of him on the 909X2 with just the telescopic antenna in my living room. Nice! You really will not find a better receiver unless you get an modern amateur radio with DSP or comparably priced dedicated communications receiver for much more money.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you get noaa broadcasts with this radio ?  also, i assume the mentioned air band is for listening to planes and airports ?  appreciate any input !**
A: This radio does NOT pick up the NOAA Weather Broadcast.  The Air Band is to monitor Air Traffic Control, planes and ground control.

**Q: Are these the new ver-073? and has the noise when holding the radio by the display been eliminated?**
A: We asked Sangean and got this reply: "Current ATS-909X2’s have software version 70. Version 73 will be available in our next shipment at the end of March 2021.  In the next couple of weeks we’ll have version 73 software and the equipment necessary to update current models."

All units we’ve tested do not have the noise when holding the unit, this noise has been eliminated.

**Q: Can I pickup Russia, Ukraine with this radio?**
A: Russia only has one shortwave broadcaster left and that is Radio Purga in eastern Siberia. It is a national broadcaster and not intended for overseas audiences. Radio Ukraine no longer has it's own transmitters but it has a weekly program that is relayed on shortwave from the Florida station WRMI. Radio Romania broadcasts from Romania can be heard on shortwave. I listen to Romania in English on the 909X2 using a backyard antenna here in California.

**Q: What color is radio ??**
A: According to the Manufacturer: "The color for the ATS-909X2 is Charcoal."
We believe the manufacturer is referring to the top half of the front, the sides and the back.  The bottom half of the front (keypad) is obviously Silver color.
Then, doing a quick check on Google, we found this information:
"Charcoal was a color that represented the dark gray color of wood burned at an intense temperature.  Charcoal grey is a very dark shade of grey - almost black but still lighter."

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by R***. on 9 April 2022*

With such a wide range of bands to explore, there’s a lot to like about this radio. Mine, however, had a faulty antenna circuit. When you’d plug in an antenna (I tried 2) the volume on a shortwave or AM station already receivable without an external antenna would drop by 50% when using the AC adapter. The volume drop was even worse when using batteries. At first I thought perhaps there was an internal/external antenna switch that had to be adjusted but I saw nothing like that on the unit or referenced in the instruction book. This was very disappointing because I got it for a great Amazon price. Thankfully Amazon makes returns very simple. I may try ordering this item again, provided inflation and the ongoing supply chain issues don’t drive the price too high. Round Two (Update August 27, 2022) With a number of months having passed since trying my first 909X2, I felt it was time to reorder. When the radio arrived I installed 4 alkaline batteries, strung the included wire antenna across my basement ceiling and got to work. The first order of business was to see how the antenna input would work on shortwave. Given my location (the basement), I felt the wire antenna did very well on this second radio. It didn’t drop the volume at all like it did with the first one. Secondly, the radio worked even better with my Godar DXR-1000 antenna that I have yet to have installed on the house. This antenna is designed for use with 75 ohm coax. (An adapter is needed to connect coax to the 909X2.) So it appears that this set is capable of operating quite well with a varied range of antennas. Unfortunately there’s bad news. This radio has a scanning feature that allows you to quickly jump from one meter band to another. This feature didn’t work on mine. At a certain point when trying to set this feature up the meter band indicator is supposed to flash but it wouldn’t. I even tried resetting the radio and it just wouldn’t work. Another suspicious issue involved the tuning wheel. Initially it wouldn’t work at all. I did a reset and from then on the wheel worked as it should. How long it would have continued to operate is anyone’s guess. Btw…my radio’s firmware was version 073. For these reasons, this radio also went back. I wanted to give Sangean an opportunity to impress me as much as they have via their WR-11 wood table radio. With the exception of the severely narrow-banded AM sound, it’s a nice radio. In my opinion, this radio and it’s siblings would be the best table sets on the market if Sangean would see fit to include a wide-band/narrow-band switch for AM on the back. In fact, the WR-11 outperforms my GE Superadio when both radios are operated using the CCrane twin coil ferrite antenna. So…2 faulty 909X2 sets in a row. Hopefully your purchase experience will be better. April 2024 Update: Firmware One of the first things I did was to check the firmware version. 078 is the latest and I was pleased to see that mine is from this batch. Antennas This radio seems to prefer higher impedance antennas when connecting through the 3.5mm antenna jack. Lower Impedance antennas work better when attaching them via alligator clip to the telescoping antenna. Tuning Tuning is executed via a ridged thumb wheel that is flush with the face of the radio. The idea is that as you hold the radio, you can extend your right thumb and spin the wheel to tune. On the left side of the wheel there are two seek/scan bars, the upper one is for tuning up while the lower one handles moving down the spectrum. There’s also an interesting “step” button in the middle of the tuning wheel. Pressing this button changes the length of the tuning steps for both the tuning wheel as well as the seek/scan bars. Hold it for about a full second and it disables the tuning wheel. I suspect I unknowingly engaged this feature on my second radio and ended up thinking that this was one of the things that was wrong with it. When it happened again on my current radio, I dove back into the manual and found out about the disable feature but fail to see its purpose. I thought maybe this was added so in case you leave the room for some reason, your kids or grandkids can’t come along and accidentally move you off frequency. What I find unusual is that this function doesn’t also disable the keypad or the tuning bars. AM Reception In a word: terrific. So far the best reception occurs when I use a Tecsun AN-48X amplified antenna. When used on a camera tripod to allow for directional focus, this antenna is a great indoor reception option. During a nighttime band scan, from 540kHz up to about 1200kHz there was a station (or stations) to be heard every 10kHz. After that the band was very crowded but some great DX still came through. From my Midwest location I was receiving many stations from Canada to Texas and the Deep South to the East coast. So as far as AM is concerned, this radio/antenna combination is a winner! FM Reception My 909X2 picked up 53 stations off the whip antenna. That’s 5 short of the record at my location which is held by my CCrane CCRadio3. Nonetheless, that is exceptional. SW Reception I’m not a collector of SW radios so I won’t be providing comparisons with other brands. However, I’m surprised by those who claim there’s little to listen to on SW, or worse yet, that this radio is deaf on SW. In the latter case, there may be a reason for that and it has nothing to do with a faulty radio. The manual clearly states that you need to have the gain control turned up to “Max” in order to hear anything on SW. Utilizing the Tecsun AN-48X antenna, during one listening session I picked up 23 stations in an area of the spectrum ranging from 4.84 to 9.71MHz SSB Reception When you come across what might appear to be a SSB transmission in SW mode, press the SSB button. Continue to press this button and you’ll see in the display that it toggles between AM, lower sideband (LSB) and upper sideband (USB). The manual indicates that amateur radio operators transmitting below 10MHz generally use the lower sideband while amateur and commercial stations transmitting above that frequency generally use the upper sideband. Choose the sideband that gives the best reception. Next, press the step button in the middle of the rotary tuning wheel that I referenced earlier to select the slow stepping mode. Then rotate the rotary tuning wheel to fine tune the voice transmission. The minimum fine tuning steps are set at 20Hz by default. This can be changed via the menu to 10Hz. Some folks complain because the radio has only one preset bandwidth for SSB. I’m fine with that because the one they chose sounds very clear to me. Still others complain because they say the SSB volume is very low compared to regular shortwave transmissions. Assuming they have the RF gain jog wheel at max where it should be, you still should expect lower volume because obviously you’re only receiving the energy from one side band. Yes, there’s a difference in volume, but on my radio it’s certainly not objectionable. Birdies and Breakthrough In 3 months of occasional usage thoroughly going through AM, FM and SW, I’ve yet to experience any birdies. However, on one occasion when using the Tecsun antenna I did experience some low volume breakthrough on SW in spots from approximately 2.2 to 2.7MHz. 2.3MHz is the second harmonic of a local, high power AM station whose tower site is about 15 miles away so this interference isn’t surprising. If this is happening to you, simply divide the frequency where it’s occurring (in kHz) by 2 and that should give you the approximate frequency of the offending station. I should add that this “breakthrough” didn’t occur when using the built-in telescopic antenna. Later in the day, and using the Tecsun antenna once again, I tuned through this range because this particular station reduces it’s power post sunset. The power reduction did lower the number and intensity of the incidents. While people may assume the radio is being overloaded by the amplified antenna, It could actually be spurious emissions from the station. The only way to know for sure would be to contact the engineer of the station. Battery Power Details I’m using rechargeable batteries. In their pre-charged state, straight from the package, they gave me about 10 hours of listening time. Recharging the batteries took over 4 hours on the radio’s built in charger and I’m assuming the play time moving forward will be even better. This radio is unique in that it not only tells you via the screen when the batteries need recharging or are finished with the charging process, it also informs you if one of the batteries is faulty. Conclusion There is so much this radio can be set up to do. There’s nearly 2 full pages in the manual just on using, storing, recalling, locking, deleting, moving and renaming preset stations. There’s also the ability to scan only within specific meter bands, the use of 3 alarm timers, how to use the record standby/line-out jacks, squelch, automatic bandwidth and much more. In the end, while it was frustrating having to deal with two faulty radios to get one that works right, I’m glad I stuck with it. I’m enjoying this one very much and I hope you enjoy yours too!
