Dick Smith by Sangean DPR-44 DAB/AM/FM Radio $116.11 C&C - DSE Online and Today Only

50

It's the same as DPR-45 but DSE branded. Usual price $199 around, have been hunting for one of these, seemed best price around since the beginning of this year, good to have AM, happy with its sound quality even though it's not in Stereo, I checked and found stocks available around Brisbane so C&C should be easy.

  • Nice find!

  • Seems nice, but still a bit pricey :/
    I see DAB+ radios for ~$40 on sale… That's the price I'm willing to bite at.

    Is there anything special I'm overlooking with this model?

      It's a DX Receiver meaning it's designed to pull in weaker transmissions over a long range however I'm pretty sure that doesn't apply to the DAB+ tuner though, only AM & FM. It could possibly receive Digital stations a little better than a standard DAB+ tuner but I'd say that would just be down to it having a better antenna. In other words, this isn't the type of radio for a city dweller, it's designed more for rural areas or for those in the shadows of hills where normal radio transmissions are too weak for normal radios.
