I paid $9, $40, $80 and $120 for portable SW radios in 2024 All are very nice in their own way The most expensive one is a Tecsun PL-660 It’s an excellent radio- no it doesn’t get signals that the cheaper ones do not get- but it’s definitely nicer than the cheaper ones

Whats the difference of in features of pl990 and pl880?
Comment from : @rawvlogz4205

I own an 880 I think i may just add this to my collection Tecsun is just great quality unlike a xhdata wb-109 i bought
Comment from : @ScannerJunkie

What's the website you said these could be bought through? I've heard you mention them a few times but can't make the name exactly I know they are available on Amazon but wanted to check other locations

Can I listen using my Bluetooth headphones?
Comment from : @SR-oc1gc

But it does not have air band Deal breaker
Comment from : @Kreemerz

I just received my PL-990X on June 26, 2024 It has an additional instruction sheet showing the “hidden” features and the calibration sequence that you showed 3 years ago Maybe they listened to your video😀

Comment from : @AEZAEZEL-187

I cant sa my tecsun r9012 is built all that well The dial is by no meams accurate but more like the log scale, a suggestion Pretty much in its stock condition, it recieves very little except the religious Christian propaganda from the east coast Most morse code is just static since it is so cheap it doesnt even have a gimmick capacitor like my s38e Its like those gift radios you get when you subscribe to TIME magazine
Comment from : @UpcomingJedi

Can you also use the Bluetooth with ear buds?
Comment from : @talkingpaper

It operates on an odd size battery It would be better if it used AA batteries
Comment from : @lonnieclemens8028

Looks to have everything but airband I'll have to go with the Eton 750 beings the H501 doesn't have it either :(
Comment from : @applejacks971

Thank you for all your videos on the Tecsun range I did some research and about six months ago bought a PL-330, it's great I like the size, I can throw it into a bag and keep it on me while traveling and it does what I want effectively, particularly for morse practice The filters are excellent brHowever, for a few weeks, I have been twitchy I know the symptoms: a need (want for a new, bigger better radio), Obsessional research, Spending hours viewing YouTube, comparison checkingPl-330 vs lots of other radios I've been through this lots over the years with all sorts of Ham kit I spend the money and sometimes regret my purchase brYou have saved me £260 Your videos have led me to conclude that for my needs the PL-330 can't be bettered It's a first Thank you
Comment from : @alannorthdevonuk763

Can you listen to aircraft with it? Thanks
Comment from : @christophermoore9992

No air band, dealbreaker
Comment from : @sandplasma

If you can use bluetooth thru your phone, cant you record in you phone?
Comment from : @kennynvake4hve584

Qual versão comprar Chinesa ou Intercional ?
Comment from : @sidneycavalcant

hello and congratulations for the channel!I give you a swl from ItalyI would have the possibility (maybe) to get a used pl 990 (without X)what's the difference with the 990X ? Are they the same in terms of SSB performance? Thank you!
Comment from : @guidomanfre

I am sure the Tecsun PL-990X is a fine receiver But I am not impressed with extra features I like simple receivers without all the complicated modern extra things to learn A few months ago I bought a Sangean ATS 818CS This model was still in the factory box and packed in styrofoam It was made in 1994 Bought it for around $10000 Thank you for the review of the Tecsun I'm thinking the PL-990X would be perfect for packing away for a camping trip I like the portable size and receiving power
Comment from : @lonnieclemens8028

They’re not cheap!
Comment from : @carlredmond676

What if, my truck camper is all made of aluminum ? Do I need an external antenna when in the woods far away ?
Comment from : @richardcontant4659

Does it record onto SD card? Does ist really support digital shortwave (DRM)?
Comment from : @Joe__Tech

How I can tune in a AM station, with the tecsun Pl-990 radio?
Comment from : @Marr575

Nos comentários usuários informam sobre problemas no SSB, identificou também o mesmo problema ou foi algo em relação ao firmware atual foi resolvido ?

Happy Fourth of July to you I played blackjack and I lost oh well ❤️‍🩹
Comment from : @LewisJeefrey

interesting, I am a new beginner of the radio, I remember when I was a kid, my grandpa will listen to the radio, after he dead, my grandma start this habit, now, both of them dead, I want to buy a radio to memory that good time
Comment from : @jiachengding6822

Can this radio be powered via usb cable and a powerbank?

Comment from : @CCCP-CCCP-CCCP

I have the PL 880damn good receiver
Comment from : @raystewart6524

Would you value the Tecsun PL-990/X at FOUR TIMES the price of the XHDATA D-808? That’s the price difference in Australia I’m really liking the D-808 by the way after just a couple of days with it
Comment from : @bradl2636

PL-990x though it lacks airband, i'll think i'll put this one on my list A bit pricey though
Comment from : @tonnywildweasel8138

Great review I love swl and had an old Grundig inherited from my dad but it got misplaced and I am now on the market for a sw radio only to find that the major players dropped manufacturing sw radios and that's how I found your channel I think I will go for this onebrOn a side note, maybe the Bluetooth functionality allows recording of the stations on your phone?brThanks for sharing
Comment from : @vaamorais

Can't see the extra price 35X more than the Pl-330
Comment from : @matthewlangley5565

ENROLOU DEMAIS PODERIA TER FEITO DEMONSTRATIVO DE TODOS ACESSÓRIOS, TER MOSTRADO O COMPARTIMENTO DAS PILHAS/BATERIAS 18650 E TER LIGADO NO FINAL DO VÍDEO ❗❗❗MAS VALEU A INTENÇÃO 💪😎
Comment from : @chicopintudo3443

while not as common as AA batteries, two 123 aka CR123 which ive been able to find at my local Kroger/Meijer/Walmart/Payless works equally as fine when in a pinch
Comment from : @AFluffyMobius

I am blown away at your knowledge You are a treasure to the art :)
Comment from : @briankeith6256

What are some good SW Radios that will also use AA batteries?
Comment from : @kygent508

Great info! Subscribed
Comment from : @rvsam4u

I can’t decide on this or the 909x2 eton?
Comment from : @jameyevans29

Expecting a review of ten radios and only one model is reviewed What gives?

Comment from : @user-topwin

Always great videos I just bought the Sangean ATS 818 and the Uniden CR 2021 Both look brand new and came with the wall plugs The Uniden even had the manual and warranty card, Neither looks like they were ever used I got both for $15000 Do you have experience with either? Thanks for all the videos and the help they give Best Wish
Comment from : @duncan3417

I've had my PL-880 for years and love its performance Is the PL-990 enough of an improvement that I should upgrade?
Comment from : @jeff2424

I have discovered a major issue with the 990x on SSB on the higher bands Example tune to some SSB speech on 27385 Mhz LSB or USB horrible DSP Warbling / wobble not to be confused with AGC issue on the oscillator seems to be the whole top end of the band on SSB rendering SSB useless possibly 25 to 29 MHZ however AM seems ok Going to be a whole lot of disappointment owner's when the solar cycle comes up opening the top bands I Believe this was an issue with some early 880's
Comment from : @zzxxenith

Is this radio capable of receiving "NOAA weather band" frequencies?
Comment from : @morgana3918

What is the firmware that comes with your Tecsun PL-990X?
Comment from : @pedrocunha7491

Based on yours and other user reviews I took the plunge and purchased a PL-330 I am really apppy with it, once I got past the chuffing when tuning However I have one small problem that I cannot seem to find the answer to The MW/AM bandwidth seems to be stuck on 10KHz and will not scroll through to the wider bandwidths, SSB scrolls through ok I can see others have had the same issue but I have still not found the solution to unlocking it Does anyone know the way to do this, probably another hidden feature
Comment from : @neallewis8061

I'd lover to see a major manufacturer offer an SDR unit with waterfall display, etc
Comment from : @marcreynolds7948

I would like to hear your opinion for the XH DATA D901, since it has a good price and the Quality für SW ist pretty good
Comment from : @cyberghost74

I also love me a good 18650 battery I have a large number that I scavenged, so they are readily available and cheap Your complaint about being able to find one in the store is off base Can you find a new battery for your phone in a store? Nope You can't even take the battery out of modern phones without a bunch of specialized tools So the fact that you CAN get affordable batteries ahead of time and be able to swap them in the field in very valuable

The Tecsun PL 990 is all "Top Ten Shortwave Receivers?"

Comment from : @yuriys6352

Comment from : @Atomshamradio

Sweet radio i love to get one👍📻
Comment from : @Atomshamradio

Well done
Comment from : @heinzschoch3841

PS Of course Also all Shortwave- PL-660
Comment from : @marksommers4868

I have 4 TecSun's, All good radios--- Also, I came across a couple Solar Battery pack- Chargers , Advertised for cell phones, but also works 4 Radios---
Comment from : @marksommers4868

It’s a pity that they didn’t add an air band for this money (
Comment from : @РадийФёдорович

It really is a nice radio
Comment from : @davidsradioroom9678

18650 batteries are not bad, in fact I love them I am an scuba diver and and all my scuba flashlights have them They give a 1 1/12 hour of continuous powerful light each time and they never fail I imagine that in that radio last for hours I have the Tecsun PL-680and I love it The air frequency is awesome Thanks for your channel, very informative
Comment from : @FalconBusa

thanks, Thomas Great job 73
Comment from : @alvarogaitan2529

There is another difference 990x & 990 other than English / Chinese manual The 990 package includes a briefcase like plastic box
Comment from : @eusufzai

Picked one up after listening to your reviews on this one This is my first, real SW radio I cannot be more pleased and am having a ball with it! Thank you!
Comment from : @Sasqwatch70

I had two different PL-660 receivers and both of them went defective on me so I’m hesitant to buy Tecsun
Comment from : @RAJohns

This is good update for shortwave radios
Comment from : @michaelbogdanowicz5059

This radio when it's released will/can be a top ten/five and that would be the new Eton Elite HD shortwave, a remake of the old Eton 900XMbrbrThe 900 and the 800 had a great tuner
Comment from : @jagdtiger9287

I think the radio is beautiful; however, for a flagship radio you would think it would have AIR Band Still a nice radio Great video
Comment from : @danielmarkleblanc1800

Cool! Sounds like a winner I might pick one up here in the Philippines
Comment from : @AmazingPhilippines1

How does audio from the PL-990x compare to audio from the H-501x?
Comment from : @Kritiker313

I really want one but I just can't justify the price I will be using my PL-330 for a long time, I mostly use headphones so the sound on the PL-330 sounds alot better If Tecsun made a new version with record, RDS, airband and better syncing, I'd definitely consider it The 990X is the best looking radio out there, they just need to tweak it a bit more
Comment from : @DonzLockz

I wonder which will rank higher on your top ten list? Your H-501x or your RSPdx?brI can’t choose between my IC-R30, H-501x, or RSP1A They all have substantial advantages
