Thanks for the videos! It´s a special interest for all H-501x (and Pl-990x) owners to compare these radios in order to decide wether to buy the S2200 or not. 73, Bernhard
I find that the sensitivity of many of these modern receivers that I own is very similar . Other features vary of course . Amazingly the 330 is not far behind the bigger ones even on the telescopic . Interesting to compare the different ones on the same signal . I often do that and find little difference except in audio quality of course , where the larger ones come into their own .
Excellent video series Gilles, I have really been enjoying it. I am looking for a radio to replace an aging Eton E1/XM and this one might be it. I do wish it had an IF shift control, which is a feature I enjoy on the E1. But it has many other features the E1 does not. It will be in the bedroom at a desk and I value good audio for sure. I would be interested in how the audio sounds out of the headphone jack going into some amplified speakers if you can test that.
Thank you so much for these videos Gilles. I think I'll order the PL-990 for the next year. I'm having so much fun decoding hf weather fax and radiograms but I'm on a thigh budget.
Thanks Gilles I have seen the report that a CME from the sun has hit the magnetic field on Earth this morning, so look for Aurora over your city tonight! 73!
I'm curious if the voltage drop from a regular battery like a D Cell will affect how well you can receive signals, or does the S-2200x have some kind of built-in voltage regulation?

@@DC6NS those who have 990x, or Tecsun H-501x can get 2200x for hobby.
I have ordered Tecsun H-501x and I am happy for my choice.
I received my Tecsun H-501x on 16th August and am enjoying it. It's extensive radio yes expansive too.

I've been waiting for this comparison.
Nice comparison.

nice navtex app, till now was connecting the pl990 with flgidi & wire, this is more easy, i have to say thanks for the app & video

In common I find 18650 perfect researchable batteries, however as I tell you now ... I agree.

Pretty sure it has a voltage regulation circuit
Kindly let me know which decoding app you are using. I was using Morse Expert in my old phone. But it no longer works in newer Android versions.
Yep I'm curious as well...???
Well that's reassuring -- since I just acquired a H-501x and haven't remotely mastered it yet...😏
What's the RF Gain like...make much difference?
How about the sound quality between these 2? Which sounds better?
