\"\"<\/a>Many thanks to SWLing Post<\/em> contributor Bob, who spotted something interesting in Sangean’s documentation database.<\/p>\n

Sangean has posted what appears to be a product brochure for an ATS-909XSE, dated August 27, 2026 (PDF)<\/a>. There’s also a corresponding manual (PDF)<\/a> in the company’s documentation database.<\/p>\n

It’s certainly an intriguing find, though, and I’ll be watching for an official announcement. I’m super pleased that Sangean continues to innovate!<\/p>\n
