Soy fan de Tecsun!. Este es el segundo radio que compo en Amazon y la recepción es excepcional. He logrado captar mis emisoras favoritas de la onda corta y decodificar el shortwave radiogram sin una antena externa. El audio es bueno, pero no tanto como el del eton elite field.

Using it mainly for shortwave and am not disappointed even when using the telescopic antenna by itself. The sound quality is really great as well.

Muy bien terminado buena sensibilidad y selectividad algo peor ,posiblemente sea culpa mia de todos los led y electronica que tengo cerca,veo criticas de la AM que aparte de la banda lateral soy un forofo de ambas bandas en am prueben a tener el interruptor de ganancia en Dx sino algunas mas distantes no le llegaran,yo e echo comparaciones con el tecsun pl 330 y el xdata d808 creo que es ese, el que tiene ssb y este el pl-880 les da, veinte bueltas para mi personal con una escala de 0 a 5 mi puntuacion es 4,8,hay lo dejo.

El mejor radio que he tenido en mis manos, no conocía la marca hasta que me dispuse a aprender el diexismo, creí que era un radio de baja calidad, que bueno que me equivoqué, es mucho mejor de lo que se ve, plásticos muy buenos, botones, perillas, no se diga la recepción, vale mucho la pena.

Es ist leider kein Radiorecorder aber die Empfangseigenschaften dieses Weltempfängers sind hervorragend gut DANKE für dieses Produkt , Ich bin stark begeistert . Die recordereigenschaft bezieht ich nur auf die Möglichkeit Sendungen via USB mitzuschneiden . Bei einem Radiorecorder setze ich Voraus das man kein 2tes gerät anschlissen muss .

TLDR: Outstanding Audio Quality, Excellent Top-Notch Performance (sensitivity/selectivity-but with a controversial ssb/sync issue), Ease of Use, Rechargeable Battery Operation, Extreme Performance to Price Ratio, The Best Quality Control of Amazon Offerings.I have been into DXing since I was a kid cuz my dad had also been into radio when he was a kid, building crystal radios, etc. The original single store Radio Shack was in the city where I grew up and a weekend outing with my father to The Radio Shack was always an adventure. As a teen I had a Hallicrafters as a bedside radio.Skip to 1990's. Lived in a high rise with a balcony where I could set up an awesome antenna. Discovered E&B Electronics (now closed), a 20 minute drive from my home that sold top shelf SW,Ham Transceivers, UHF Scanners, but I eventually had to move to a condo with no balcony and had generally lost interest. In my storage closet are a Drake R8, an Icom IC-R7100 (unblocked), an AOR 3000A(unblocked), and an iconic Sony ICF-SW77.For the past 10 years my bedside radio has been a small portable 5 station preset Sony ICF-M410V that I paid $60 for. (It's still available on Amazon but the link is like a paragraph long). It served me well and had good sound from its 3" speaker. It's tuning knob now only goes in one direction so I decided to replace it.I have been studying the top battery operatable AM/FM/SW radios on Amazon for over a month. I must have watched at least 50 comparative videos on YouTube and concluded that the PL880 could not be beat performance wise and sound quality was important to me. (The PL 600 was right up there at the top of the performance scale, but my major use of the radio will be for FM listening and sound quality was of great importance to me.) Along with performance, the single factor that made me ulitamately zero in on this Tecsun PL880 was quality and quality control. Yeah, I'd like to have a Grundig 750 cuz it looks so cool, or a Sangean 909x cuz of it's display (but sub par performance without an outside antennae), or a CC Crane, but looking at all the reviews for those there were just too many peeps who received dead on arrivals or short-lived radios. The Tecsun has almost none that I saw. So when I saw the PL880 being offered for same day delivery yesterday I impulsively pulled the trigger and I am happy I did.This radio excudes the feel of quality. It's audio quality is nothing short of amazing. I keep a Grundig S3250DL on my desk. The Grundig is known for its excellent sound. If you were not doing a side by side comparison, unless you are tone deaf, you would have to admit that the audio quality from the PL880 is outstanding both for voice and music. It also can pump it out at room filling volumes. Side by side, while I can hear a subtle overall difference, the audio that the PL880 puts out is hard to distinguish from that of the Grundig. Kudos to Tecsun!While I am not yet fully familiar with the operation of the 880, 5 minutes after the battery was installed and fully charged I did a scan on the FM/AM/SW bands; 1.) FM Band - I was stunned at the number of stations that I had been missing with my Sony and the excellent radio I have in my car. All crystall clear; 2.) AM was ok but much better than expected.In the building where I live the way it is configured and the materials used to construct it AM is hardly worth the effort, yet the 880 pulled in quite a few stations well that I did not know existed; 3.) SW - Then I said what the hay and attached the included antenna, ran it across a window inside and did a SW scan. I expected nothing, but got 39 hits :-) Some were very strong and clear, but as they were all foreign speaking except one, I have no idea where they were broadcasting from. Looks like my DXng days have been revived.I do agree with those who say that the final top extension of the antenna is extremely thin and fragile. I wil not be extending the antenna its full length because of this . Also, having lived with this radio for a few days now, I find accessing stored channels somewhat cumbersome and anti-intuitive, but I gues that's the price you pay for having THREE THOUSAND storage channels :-)If you can spare the bucks and are looking for an outstanding sounding, battery operated, easily portable, handome looking radio (with the added benefits of SW/LW/Emergency Info. abilities), buy yourself a PL880 -You'll love it. The way I look at it, at my age if I can buy myself a thrill for $169 bucks it's a great deal :-)

It's all been said for this multi-band radio; lots of excellent reviews as this radio is a real winner, especially for any serious shortwave listener... even with the telescopic aerial/antenna, it produces good signals across the HF band; FM has great sensitivity too, and long-medium wave is a little above most average receivers, which is a same; if an additional RF amplifier stage or even better, a longer/diameter ferrite-rod, would have been the cream on top for this great receiver.Where this radio comes into it's own, is the ability to change the filters to reduce or remove interference QRM, and in some cases QRN; LW-MW can also select filter band-pass too, and there are a number of unofficial un-published button functions, that will provide some useful tweaks to suite your own preferences; search SWLing for this information at:http://swling.com/blog/2014/06/complete-list-of-tecsun-pl-880-hidden-features/The two changes that need doing for shortwave is, the DNR Dynamic Noise Reduction, and MUTE... however, for most general users, they will be more than happy as the radio comes out of the box, without any tweaks required.If I compare my Icom IC-R75 that's now a little long in the tooth, regarding it design life; the Icom falls short along side the Tecsun PL 880 portable, and so compact with very good sound quality, from such a small package... for the price you get a lot of quality radio technology, considerable thought has been put into this receiver, with great results. I Highly Recommended this receiver.Unfortunately I have now to state one caveat ! after several days of enjoyable use, the pre-charged battery discharged without any indicator showing it was depleting ? I did think this was odd, but now is evident of a faulty charging problem within the receiver; thus had to return to Amazon... having said this, it's still a great receiver and hopefully, my replacement will be as good.
