Re: " Oate" foam - FSL PL-380
I use sill sealer available at any home improvement store. Make sure to get the type without the ripples. The oatey foam comes with a big metal staple in it, causing deformation.

" Oate" foam - FSL PL-380
Anyone have an extra piece of 4" Oatey foam to spare,
Will pay for it. Can't locate any around here.
Will the small type bubble wrap work?
Thanks,

Re: Compare Tecsun PL-606 to the PL-380
Thanks for the reply Tony on comparing the two radios. Does the 380 have a shorter ferrite rod, than the 606? Does the 380 have a way of keeping the light on? Thanks!

Re: Compare Tecsun PL-606 to the PL-380
Sorry guys for premature send.
Thanks to Paul for his lead to the You Tube video on cancelling soft mute on the Tecsuns and hence increasing the gain. Have been busy on the VF button !
