I've had one for about 10 days now. My take: MW to SW bleed-through doesn't seem as bad as on the D96L. Seems to be able to record at any volume level. I haven't figured out how to set it to make

hi everyone, John was just asking about FM DX. and i recently added a tiny article to my site called "PL-390 FM DX King", located

I have seen portable radios that would automatically switch to 'headphone-antenna-mode' when I plugged headphones in. This was usually only on FM, but I'm guessing that is what's happening

Hi Ginger, The problem happens only with the clip-on antenna, and only on shortwave. I tried using a stereo to mono adapter (stereo on the headphone side, mono on the radio side), but this made no

Gary, a few questions about the 1126 I'm wondering if the bleed through is as bad as my Kchibo D96L Does it fix the DE1123 issues with having to record on Max-Volume? How is the default bandwidth on

I've had a DE1126 for about a month. For a small multifunction radio/recorder/player: + OK AM performance, but not likely anyone here would consider for AMBCB DX work. + The most sensitive and

Hi, I bought a Grundig-badged AN-200, cost USD30, a few days ago on my travels in the US. After building a few larger tuned loops, this one is easy to transport when I'm travelling and for what it

Kaito has a manual listed here: http://www.kaitousa.com/DE1126/DE1126%20_English%20manual.pdf Haven't looked myself yet but I'll take a glance tonight.

Seems to have some exciting features. Has anyone ordered or know what the DSP settings are ? Regards from NZ Tony

An updated version of the D96L would be great! However, as I work with these radios and read about the Tecsun models, I can't help but wonder what the DE1123 would be with a larger loopstick, and

Back in the 1970's I lived in New Orleans. At some point I opened up my Japanese AM radio and fiddled with the if slug and trimmer capacitor tuning until I could receive WWV on 2.5 MHz. This would

Thats whats needed.. A nice antenna (highly directional) maybe frm someone wantin to get rid of theirs out in the fringe areas... and a good rotor I'm in the same boat NY metro area. Best Regards

Hi John, I've not really tried FX DXing beyond a little dabbling here and there. I live in a large metro area full of FM stations close to me and I can never seem to pull stations further than 75

Hey John: In File Folder 5 here on the Group there is an article "Comparing Small MW DXing Antennas.pdf", comparing a bunch of commercially available units. In my opinion, there is little difference

Thanks, Neil, No doubt the salt water of L.I. Sound helps with propagation from CT, RI, and MA. I love my D96L for FM. AM/MW is almost as good; SW would probably be great if it didn't have those

Day off today, so I decided to try the radios in a better location than my home here on Long Island. They highest point on L.I. is Jayne's Hill in the town of Huntington, near Walt Whitman Mall. The

Postings and observations suggest that there are significant discrepancies in quality control in the Middle Kingdom. RF sensitivity depends on auto-tracking by the chip on the AM ferrite winding

I have noticed while comparing MW reception that my PL-380 actually out performs my PL-390 in the center of the AM band, but not so much on either end of the band. wondering if anyone else noticed
