Is there a way to plug an external diapol antenna where the rubber duck antenna plugs in. Would it overload to much?

Not sure how you'd hook up a dipole to this radio, but you can definitely use a long wire. The way I did it was using a wire and a electrical ring terminal. Make sure to find a ring terminal with a hole that will fit the threaded part of the PR-D6 antenna. Crimp and/or solder the wire to the ring terminal. Once that is done, put the threaded part of the antenna through the hole in the ring terminal, and then screw the antenna into the radio. After that you can run the long wire anywhere you want.

does it tell you what type of converter to buy instead of batteryies/

Below is a link to the proper power cord for this radio. https://smile.amazon.com/Sangean-PR-D18BK-Portable-Receiver-POSITIVE/dp/B004I683BA/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1510712176&sr=1-2-fkmr0&keywords=DC+6+volt+%2F+0.4+amp+radio+power+cord+PR-D6BK

With the volume turned down completely, I still could hear the noise from 3ft away. Is it normal for this radio?

Apparently. It is not the best radio

What are the dimensions of this radio?

According to Todderbert's review on YT, it is 6.75 inches wide by 4.75 inches high by 2.5 inches deep.

me ha encantado

la calidad de materiales es buena, y la sintonizacion de estaciones es eficiente, aunque debido a que solo cuenta con capacidad para baterías AA, se descargan mas rápidamente, comparado con una radio de baterías D. es el único inconveniente encontrado por mi.

Bass and Treble controls! yes..finally.

Sweet, sweet, and a most excellent radio! The Sangean put a huge smile on my face when I turned it on for the first time. Wow is all I can say about this compact AM FM radio! Features I like about this radio: Bass and Treble controls! yes..finally. A Pure Analog Tuning Experience. White lettering on Black Dial. Very easy to read. FM Reception is through the roof! AM Reception is fantastically good. Removable antenna. DC input. FM Stereo while using headphones! Stop the presses :) Speaker audio is very strong and sounds sweet with the extra bass/treble controls. Headphone audio is a wonderful experience with the addition of the bass/treble controls. Features that could be improved on or added: Carrying handle, vs strap. include AC adapter on all models. Power LED indicator. Aux In jack. Top or back lit dial...that would look amazing. Silver paint treatment needs protection. Dial tuner could be less stiff. Overall, I would choose this radio over my Sony 506, 19 and Panasonic 2400...main reason is the bass/treble controls, they work so well and make the smaller speaker sound so good. Did I mention Sangean thought about putting FM Stereo as a feature on the headphone jack? Killer! This radio is a must buy..fantastic.

Decepción total...!!!

Estoy decepcionado de este radio, tiene muy mala calidad de audio... Anteriormente ya he comprado cuatro radios Sangean de modelos distintos, con una calidad impresionante... Cuando vi este radio me gustó también, y lo ordené, pero cuando lo recibí: Oh desepción..!!! Una mala recepción, mala selectividad, y un sonido que deja mucho que desear, sin contar que llegó incompleto, no traía la antena, ni la correa transportadora... Lo tuve en mis manos solo media hora y de inmediato lo devolví... Me asombro que Sangean, una marca que solo tiene artículos de calidad probada, tenga para venta un producto con estos estándares de calidad tan bajo... No lo recomiendo si eres un aficionado a la radio y te gusta la calidad de sonido...

I am SO SO SO PLEASED with this radio!

Sangean held up to all the rave reviews I read. The sound clarity for the size of this radio is way beyond acceptable. Tunes in lots and lots of stations and holds the signal. Also LOVE that this radio has treble and bass dials. You can listen to talk stations and distinctly discern what is being said, and then dial back the treble and add some bass for music. Can't ask for more in a reasonably priced portable radio. What a great value for the money!
