I have never seen such a eager response and extraordinary anticipation over the announcement of a new portable radio as with the new Tecsun PL You see, it has been a couple years since a really good portable radio has been introduced to the market. Plus,Tecsun has proven itself a competent radio manufacturer; the predecessors to the PL—i. Their smaller DSP radios are favorites of travelers and ultralight enthusiasts. As I was telling Jeff, over at the Herculodge blog, reviewing the PL was much like attending the opening night of a play.

Tecsun pl 880

The Tecsun PL offers several features that make it superior to previous models including Digital Signal Processing on the HF band which is a quantum leap forward for the reception of weak signals. Further, the PL offers selectable IF bandwidth and a new long-life lithium ion battery. Available in dark grey. The Tecsun PL Radio offers several features that make it superior to previous models including Digital Signal Processing on the HF band in all modes , a quantum leap forward for the reception of weak signals. Further, the Tecsun PL Radio offers 9 user-selectable IF bandwidth settings and a new long-life lithium-ion battery. The Tecsun PL Radio is the culmination of years of research and technology development. All the desirable features of shortwave listening have been combined in a single package. Upper Side Band and Lower Side Band are individually selectable, and there are multiple user-selectable bandwidth settings available for each band. Particular attention has been paid to the audio output of this receiver to enhance the listening experience. Apart from bass and treble control, the speaker is driven by a Class AB power amplifier capable of mW output.

Have you got any ideas.

More recently the antenna started to pull apart from wear, but an OEM replacement was easy to find and easy to install. Now the radio looks and works good as new — the screen protector still on the display. The PL, like its predecessor, is a PLL synthesized analog-tuned radio with digital display; the PL is a dual conversion superheterodyne radio and the PL is a triple conversion superhet. Unlike the PL, the PL employs a digital signal processor for decoding signals and controlling bandwidth. The PL has 2 bandwidth settings wide and narrow compared with the PL that has 4 values 9, 5, 3. The two radios are operationally very similar, but there are some features of the PL that are missing from the PL, specifically AIR band and synchronous detection more on that below.

Pick up Russia out of my back yard using just the regular antenna! They further appreciate that the radio doesn't mute between frequency changes, and just tunes like an analog radio. The included case is nice and will keep the radio from damage while traveling. Just be sure to switch to 5 Khz or less when band scanning as the wide 9K bandwidth will dilute weaker signals with their surrounding noise and interference…9K is best for medium to strong signals.

Indeed the top-most antenna segments on the PL are very thin indeed, so take care not to bend it and be warned that the antenna is unusually stiff to collapse. I haven't played around with FM too much, but it sounds great. Volume control. In this case, the Kaito AN, also available under other names. Terrific sound from both of them.

Ed: the Sangean x is a highly-regarded radio, but there is an important difference in that radio compared to the PL, according to reviews. I'm 60 years old and played with shortwave radios when I was kid. These days the value for money proposition has become more prominent in the form of other flagship receivers costing roughly twice the amount with only small advantages. I guess that the AGC circuitry is not top notch designed. Also included was a dual USB wall adaptor plug for charging the radio. And, Tecsun, I hope you add those hidden features to future operation manuals. I am hoping someone can figure out a way to mod the radio, but I fear all those good digital features are tied together with the bad. Another welcome addition to the PL is a light switch; in addition to automatic display lights when pressing buttons or turning knobs that go off after a few seconds, the switch lets the user choose for it to remain on. All its other SW features are a bonus. This so-called pumping is annoying and few serious radio listeners want soft muting.
