A 3-second search on Google resulted in a tremendous amount of information including many reviews, details etc etc.

At first glance, kind of reminds me of the CCR of shortwave radios. They do look nice but dig deep into those reviews😉

There's gotta' be a least a few reviews on YouTube.

I have two XHDATAs, two of the small analog ones. XHDATA D-219 and XHDATA D-328. The 328 is better on shortwave. But in my location it needs maybe 10-20 ft (3-6 meters) of wire clipped to the antenna. It brings in any station my other radios will bring in. The D-219 is better (for me) on MW. In some locations SWL's have good performance on the D-219 on SW off the whip. My location is a low signals location (surrounded by close hills).

I have read a lot of good things about the XHDATA digital readout radios. They are all very affordable (compared to other brands) but work well, especially the XHDATA D-109 (affordability, works well off the whip, digital tuning, etc.).

I just purchased one, an XHData D-109WB. It’s inexpensive, a little over $40, but seems to be a high quality item. I watched a lot of YouTube reviews and read customer reviews at Amazon. XHData seems to be a good brand.
