Does the DT-200X have a speaker or is it headphones only?

It has a small built-in speaker for mono listening and a stereo headphone jack. Most owners use earbuds for music and the speaker for talk radio.

What batteries does it take?

Two AA batteries. Alkaline cells are the usual choice; rechargeables work but run at lower voltage.

FM reception is weaker without the headphone cord, which acts as the antenna. Plug in earbuds for the best FM signal.

Yes. It has a digital clock, alarm and snooze, so it can wake you to a station or a buzzer.

No. It covers AM and FM only, with no NOAA weather band. Look at a weather radio if alerts matter to you.

The DT-400W adds weather band and alert features in a similar body. The DT-200X is the simpler AM/FM version.
