Over the weekend I spent some time in my backyard running a three way test of my Digitech AR-1733, TEAC PR130 and DAB-P9. As can be seen the Digitech AR-1733 was the best performer, both the PR130 and

This solution looks very interesting from the perspective of an experimenter being able to play with the parameters. Right up my alley, as I love tweaking. But how good is the radio overall? Like in

The best long lasting 18650 is the LG MJ1 but not easy to find at least at a good to reasonable price

Beware of battery draining while the radio is off. I have had two radios which did this and in both cases the radios were defective...replacements cured the issue. The test is to take the battery out

Suggest looking for a name-brand item, Tenergy is an example or one of the flashlight brands like Nitecore - as another poster mentioned. In Canada www.batterycanada.com has Tenergy, if in US might

Jorge, no I didn't try that because it was still under warranty. Here it's unlikely I'll get Es with RDS on a portable. The only longer telescopic rods I have won't fit anyway. I could attach a 3m

Hi Mark, Well, there is no HD AM stations here in the Old World and never will have! I bought mine from the EUA because, despite its size, it had PI decoding capabilities. Unfortunately the RDBS and

Careful with batteries you buy on ebay, they can be imposters/fakes/junk. I have been using nitecore 18650 batteries for years and have no problems, and theyre based/at leats mostly made in the

Mark, I found a set of 4 or 5 on ebay that came with a bonus wall charger and a super-bright pocket flashlight, for around $12.00. Sorry I can't provide more details but my purchase history doesn't

I prefer over-the-ear headphones...but have also found that Apple EarPods work well for me. I generally don't like earbuds, but the Apple ones have decent sound and, most important, can actually stay

The 18650 batteries that came with my XHDATA D-808 radios (2 of them) have turned out to be lousy. Even when the radios are not in use, they discharge very rapidly. This is true even though I have

"still sports the best LCD display technology that the 1990s can offer" -- haha! It's hard to find AM stations broadcasting in HD. There are none in the San Francisco Bay Area, for example. KCBS (740

It's a good radio: my quibble with it is that the threshold for FM stereo reception is set rather high. For example, you might get stereo reception on a Tecsun model (or some other model) but the

The DT-250 is not available in the United States (I've looked - I like the silver color - I'm shallow) Probably the closest equivalents are the DT-400W or the DT-200VX. Re: the CC Pocket. Note that

Hi all, I have been performing some VERY informal side by side comparisons of these three radios on FM. I must admit that the DT-800 and the R-108 are both equally excellent at FM reception and better

Yeah it is a great spot. I hope so, I first started with radio around his age.

Paul, Awesome looking location. Also it looks like your son may catch your DXing bug! Jay
