Hello All,

For those interested in the DXing capabilities of Tecsun's newest DSP
pocket radio, a thorough 7-page review of the PL-380 AM-LW-FM-SW receiver
(covering the development, capabilities and relative performance of this soft
mute-free model) has been uploaded to DXer.Ca at

Included in the review is a four-band Shootout with the PL-310 and D96L
models (except on LW, where it is matched against the PL-310 and PL-300WT),
and a discussion on how its relative AM-DXing value compares with the PL-310
and D96L models. An addendum provides additional information, with links to
demonstration MP3's of the PL-380's DSP filtering options, and a recently
developed 7.5" loopstick transplant modification to greatly boost the
PL-380's LW and MW sensitivity on all frequencies. Hopefully this detailed
review will answer all your questions about this innovative new DSP model.

73 and Best Wishes,
