Tecsun PL-880 Portable Band Radio Receiver with AM/FM/SSB Modes

Soy fan de Tecsun!. Este es el segundo radio que compo en Amazon y la recepción es excepcional. He logrado captar mis emisoras favoritas de la onda corta y decodificar el shortwave radiogram sin una antena externa. El audio es bueno, pero no tanto como el del eton elite field.

Muy bien terminado buena sensibilidad y selectividad algo peor ,posiblemente sea culpa mia de todos los led y electronica que tengo cerca,veo criticas de la AM que aparte de la banda lateral soy un forofo de ambas bandas en am prueben a tener el interruptor de ganancia en Dx sino algunas mas distantes no le llegaran,yo e echo comparaciones con el tecsun pl 330 y el xdata d808 creo que es ese, el que tiene ssb y este el pl-880 les da, veinte bueltas para mi personal con una escala de 0 a 5 mi puntuacion es 4,8,hay lo dejo.

In the 80's through the 90's I was a SWLer (Shortwave Listener). I had a Kenwood R-600 and later upgraded to an R-5000. I was very active in the hobby and collected 100's of QSL cards. Lately I've been feeling nostalgic about the hobby and came across this radio. My R-600 is in dire need of service and I sold my R-5000 years ago so this looked like an interesting way to get back into it even though there are so few international broadcasters anymore. The portability was very appealing as well. I was shocked at how well this radio operates. The fine tuning provides an analog-like tuning experience with smooth tuning. The USB and LSB modes work perfectly and are very stable. You can even change the bandwidth!! I did not expect these features on a low cost portable radio. All I miss from my R-5000 is the notch filter and IF shift. The sound quality is also amazing with a very full bodied sound, not tinny like most portables in this class. So far I've tuned in some AM band stations, such as WBBM in Chicago (I'm in NJ!). I've listened to some ham operators and picked up a few international broadcasters such as Romania. The single sideband modes combined with the variable bandwidth make it easy to hone in on the signal. Having used SW radios before, all of the features made sense to me. If you are new to this, it may be a bit daunting, but that isn't really the radio's fault. If you take the time to learn how to access the features (not too hard) and what they will do for you, you will be rewarded with some impressive performance.

Using it mainly for shortwave and am not disappointed even when using the telescopic antenna by itself. The sound quality is really great as well.
