A few months ago, I bought the XHDATA D-219 from eBay but not until I received it did I realize that it tuned in 9 KHz steps on AM and there was no way to switch it to 10 KHz. I found I was still able to tune into all my usual AM stations but they seemed to be at reduced volume in many cases. Since stations were received with several peaks, I guessed that some of the peaks were fairly close to the actual station frequency therefore making it possible to hear them, but I asked the good folks at XHDATA if they planned a 10K AM step version of the radio and eventually they did. I now have the new US version D-219 which tunes AM in 10K steps and putting it side by side with the 9K version the results were interesting. How does the XHDATA D-219 stack up?
