We will find distant stations using the Terk Advantage Loop and the Radio's Bandwidth controls that gives you Seven Options for complete control. Clean Looks, 18650 Powered, SSB are all attributes that make this radio a Winner :)

Overall, I would watch for deals on this radio. It seems the prices have gone up. When the new Tecsuns hit the market we will watch those drop. The D-808 is a fantastic radio. Always on my bench ready to be picked up and tuned.

Hi. Thank you for this.I've had one of these for almost 3 years. Up here in Scotland its my go to radio and today I was listening to Radio Caroline on 648khz running 1kw. from 400 miles away in Suffolk, England. Its good on SW too. This is the radio that I always recommend to novices to the hobby. Its not perfect. Its ergonomics are not the best but its a great performer, can be recharged via phone charger, has good battery performance. For around £70 you can't beat it. 73s
your band scans are always good even the with the daytime band scans
I like XHDATA. They’re second best customer service next to C. Crane, good bandscan Todderbert
I really envy you. You can listen to so many AM / MW stations. Where I live i barely have any AM stations. They all went to the new DAB+ system.
Very good bandscan. You obviously are familiar with most stations on the AM band. I really enjoy MW DX-ing. Keep it up!
I am a fan of your videos both for the information but also because you have one of the best unintentional ASMR voices on RUclips. Nice neutral subject matter, great voice. Better than antihistamines right before bedtime.
Thanks for showing one of the capabilities of this little, affordable, and all terrain receiver. Mine rides with me and my car 😁📻
Hello Marcos, good to hear from you again!
Your knowledge base (radio stations) is just astonishing !
It is magical indeed! Imagine someone talking or playing a sport game or music... and you can hear it and it’s from half way around the world!🤔 Also in your scans I’ve noticed an increasing number of music stations on mw.
I love that there is more music on MW, even WGN has evenings of music broadcasts instead of sports and current local news.
At the frequency 1620 kHz during the day, you forgot to select the narrower bandwidth, as you did correctly with the Tecsun PL-660 radio.
Could you please demonstrate the playback quality of all radios in the price range of an XHData 808, Tecsun PL-330, PL-660 and Sangean PR-D15 at the same receiver bandwidth, the same volume (level meter of a sound editing program) and at only one receiving frequency 1620 kHz? The whole thing would be better without commentary, except at the beginning and end, because then you could focus entirely on the differences.
I like your reviews very much. 👍👏🏻
I love mine, watching video just to get what I am missing .
At 23:30 polish song 🙂
Please also consider placing a dollar bill next to your radios for the size comparison.
What a fantastic review. Top Shelf 100%
I’m in the mountains so I’d love a more sensitive A.M. receiver. But I’m a ham operator as well, sooo. I would get the pl-660 but I need the filters for cw/ssb. Hmmm
some how i turned on timer at top how do i turn it off?Thanks
Great value radio, I have a spare battery as they are not AA. Picks up Airband o.k too.
Oh a whim after watching this vid, I bid for one on Ebay and won for $67. Seems normal selling price is $90-$105 or so. Will probably not arrive till after Christmas from China.
I can't get my radio to switch to 64MHz to 86 MHz. Could it be locked? I bought it in Germany on Amazon.
👍Good
Here is my big question. Tecsun pl-660, Eton executive or xhdata 808. What is the best overall radio in order including ssb.
for shortwave SSB the PL-660, for everything else the Eton Executive followed by the more portable D-808.
todderbert I have a Sony 7600gr and an Eton s350dl. Some smaller emergency units. I just picked up a pl-660 as a back up to my Sony. I appreciate the help,
@@todderbert Only 2 filter selections on the 660 tho. Right?
So Nice 💘💘💘💘💘💘
Hey todderbert? Can you do a review of the GE 7-2840A AM FM Instant Weather radio one day?
I own one and a review is imminent.
It's a good radio but quite slow to operate to my taste. And battery life is not great.
Recently I bought the pl330 and this is an amazing radio for the price (cheaper than the d808). 0-30 mhz, SSB, multiple filters, sync detection. But no air band. One negative side is the battery, why the hell to continue to use these nokia batteries ? I'll mod it soon to install a 3000mah battery but it implies some destruction inside the radio. Already modded the antenna and now reception is great in lw and even better in mw.
Why don't u fetch broadcasts from europe or asia?
I could, but my current setup is limited by my Wife's current Working at Home Status since the Pandemic started. Eventually I will have that area back for SW Listening.
Does the squelch work on SW? or on the other band? That would be useful for when listening to hams.
It does but doesn’t seem to do very well on SW.
@@RJDA.Dakota Thanks! Not even on the stronger signal hams?
@@coroamanicolai4527 quite possible for stronger stations but the weaker ones I wouldn’t use it. It’s actually fine for the Air Band.
@@RJDA.Dakota Ok. Thanks again!
@@RJDA.Dakota 7$c
What new tecsuns are coming?
Hopefully a PL-330, I am waiting for Kaito USA to start selling them.
