PL990 Digital Shortwave AM/FM Radio with Sideband Reception and MP3 Player Matte Black

As a licensed ham radio operator I find myself buying all sorts of radios and have 4 shortwave radios. 1) The radio arrives in a high quality box expertly packed. 2) includes an impressive leather case. 3) The speaker and sound this radio produces is a noticeable level above other radios of equal or lesser value. This is a fabulous sounding radio. 4) At this price you expect SSB, great sensitivity and selectivity and great reception. This radio checks those boxes. 5) At this price you expect package to include optional long wire antenna. Included. Of all these features the feature this radio provides over other models is the amazing sound quality. You won’t be disappointed.

Es un excelente receptor, se siente de buena calidad, pesa lo suficiente y tiene buen sonido. La recepción en onda corta también es muy buena con su antena telescópica que mide unos 97 centímetros, su último tramo es muy delgado por Loque se debe ser cuidadoso. Funciona bien el Bluetooth para escuchar música desde tu teléfono y tiene buena duración de la batería. Sólo hay un detalle en la perilla de sintonía, se endurece pero sólo un poco en algún punto al girarla, pero poca cosa. Por lo demás un radio fantástico para la escucha de onda corta. Para FM es muy bueno porque tiene un sonido equilibrado, si tuviese RDS sería mejor, pero no es imprescindible, toda la vida escuché radio sin necesidad de ello.

Un magnífico receptor multi bandas y muy intuitivo en su uso, además, la recepción de estaciones de larga distancia mediante a.m., LW, ISW es excelente. También, el reproductor que incluye este magnífico receptor de radio es muy práctico cuando queremos escuchar nuestros audios favoritos en diferentes formatos. Como incondicional RadioEscucha desde siempre recomiendo la compra de este receptor de radio

Great radio. Unfortunately, comparing with 660, removed airband. Threre is no FM demodulation of 27MHz (I believe implement it would not be very hard) :( Surprisingly in USA a huge amount of AM stations! (I didn't use external antenna). It has USB-C. USB DAC recognised as "buildwin media player". 32GB card was inserted into radio. .ape (profile Monkey's Audio High), flac 16*44.1 plays (files must be in root directory: player doesn't scan directories!) .flac 24*96 and .api encoded with profile Monkey's Audio Extra High -- skips. Has BT receiver, didn't try to pair. Charger has 2*USB-A ports, 100-240V. To sum up: I recommend to buy. But if it would be option to choose airband + FM on 27MHz, I'd choose it instead of useless for me "multimedia". P.S. Don't forget to remove protecting plastic from accumulator before first usage!

This is a modern radio with modern features, but from its execution to documentation, is clearly a love letter to the past (watch some YouTube videos about it!) Bravo, Tecsun. I also own the Eton Field BT, but bought this because it can play MP3s (it was worth that much to me) and was money well spent. This a more premium product than any Eton I’ve owned. I was a Grundig guy back in the day, but will definitely look first at Tecsun in the future.
