The HD version used to be on the Universal radio website but has been removed for awhile now. I had been watching for it and checked the ETON site a couple weeks ago and it was no longer listed there

As many here already know, Radiojayallen's site is an excellent and reliable site for portable radio reviews and he posts here as well. His latest review of the Tecsun PL-320 ULR is no exception. Like

If you are interested in news re: disasters keep on hand a list of the domestic religious SW broadcaster frequencies. In the past they have switched to cover floods/tornadoes 24/7 with info on the gro

For me it was the appeal of hearing distant broadcasts, DXing was to develop skills to discover new and interesting programming. That still guides me today. When DXing I will not stay with a station t

Try shielding the radio itself with aluminum foil, and let the whip antenna stick out. Yes, a very sensitive cheap radio like the D-109 will overload in a strong signal location, but it is a great bar

Paolo- I have at least a dozen DSP chip radios. I would not count on the RSSI readings being comparable between radios even if they use the same model SI chip. The AVC will make weaker and stronger si

Yes, the ATS-909X was an example I had in mind. The Grundig [Germany] SAT 700 is one with an RF amp stage only used on the whip. I don't have an overloading problem on the D-109 using my 31m dipole on

What antenna are you two using? The whip or something plugged in? It is not uncommon for me to have to attenuate my outdoor antennas on better portables. I like a variable control so I can get the sig

I saw that mentioned on the SWL You tube channel. He gave the days and times for 1 hour broadcasts and asked for anyone with more info about that station from Germany.

Steve R- I just noticed your post and wanted to know if you have a website where you share your projects.- FARMERIK in CT

Can the ferrite be shielded with aluminum foil after adding a small pick up winding of say 3-5 turns for the antenna jack? Can the ferrite be eliminated completely from the circuit and some how a 50-7

If still under warranty, be sure to contact C Crane right away. - FARMERIK

Liam- I am not a Ham myself and don't monitor SSB signals. I just thought you would like to use that feature. Let us know if you find it stable enough for monitoring SSB signals. It certainly tunes fi

Liam- You mentioned [I think it was you] wanting to be able to monitor HF Ham bands. The PL-365 when in Side Band will take you to one end of each Ham band when you push the up or down SW button. If n

It is hard to pick one ULR for all uses. Will you listen to programs and DX occasionally? In that case better audio is important. If you use headphones the radio speaker is not very important. Do you

I just did a quick comparison of strong signal Classical Music on the PL-330 and D-109 and the '109 is clearly the winner. It sounds like it has a 'wider' and 'fuller' frequency range. I have no idea

I came across this VERY positive review of the ICR-110 from South Africa. He logged some very distant MW stations. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwxdvA2O9bg&t=1005s I suspect he has far different MW

I had one of the even earlier models with Chinese markings. I bought it to record remote DX sessions but kept forgetting which buttons did what. It did not impress me as especially good or bad at hear

I have the older CountyComm rubber stand for the PL-360 series. Possibly a used one might appear on Ebay or similar. I don't use it as much as I thought I would, I lay the radio down flat on a table o

Liam- I just want to welcome you and I am glad to see your interest with lots of good questions. Any small radio can be helped by a tuned loop. The Tecsun/Grundig is quite inexpensive and if still ava
