Could anyone comment on the sound quality of the speaker on the DT-400W versus the DT-210?

I have both radios and like them both. I do think the DT 210 sounds a bit better, though shortly after I first bought it, I had to re-glue the speaker magnet. No biggie. The DT 210 was my first Sangean and now I have 5. I'm a fan.

where do I buy another fm trailing antenna

If you make one of your own from an old set of ear buds, make sure the wire is 36 inches or longer. Your FM reception towards the top end of the band will suffer it it's shorter than that. I used a speaker extension wire (male plugs on each end) of 24 inches and noticed the reception of a station at 106.1 noticeably weaker. Changing back to a 36 inch wire fixed it.

i listen to am/talk radio---how does this work for my purposes

I found this to be the best "Pocket Radio" on the market and I ONLY listedn to talk AM, NPR/PRN/RIP FM talk & entertainment. Either on speaker or ear buds, this Sangean DT-400 Digital is that BEST that I could find that gave me everything I wanted in listening to "Talk Radio"!!

Does this get good reception from distant radio stations? I camp in the Rockies and have a hard time pulling in radio stations at night. Thanks!!

the Sangean DT400-W has very good reception in both AM and FM bands and Noaa. When I go camping or backpacking way Out in mountainous terrain, I take a 30 foot Clip on wire antenna the wire antenna comes on a handy reel, for easy extension and rolling up. Antenna length is a function of tuning the antenna mathematically to the desired wavelength (frequency) one wants to monitor. Meaning that a long antenna such as this is mostly for enhancing reception of all transmissions hitting the antenna. Misunderstanding the results of these long antennas is what is causing people to say 'It doesn't help much." They do not understand that bringing in more transmissions also brings in excessive 'clutter', aka noise; and if there just isn't more to receive, they ain't gonna get it either; so they say the reception is not enhanced. Amateur operators use wire antennas 60' (very short) to hundreds of feet. Meaning long antennas are good. So, this will also pull in distant commercial AM & FM stations - if they are there. It all boils down to what is available to receive with current atmospheric conditions. In other words, it will depend on where you are in relation to the transmitters. Might, or might not help, due to that. this is a nice, compact variable length antenna, or make your own antenna out of speaker wire, etc
