C.Crane Skywave Vs. XHDATA D-808... 1 kHz DSP Audio Shootout
I do not consider the 1 kHz filter a usable option. For me the winner is the one that gives a better base for further editing the audio file and make the voice clear. I think it will be the Xhdata.

Recent approved ultralight DX radio list; proposing Eton Elite Mini
Why would you need approval for each individual model if it is not even closed to any of the limits?

Airband Listening
Hi, just a technical note, all the DSP portable radios use an external circuit to receive the air band, it is not received directly from the DSP IC (usually Si4735 in our radios) The external circuit

AM radio that use a chip for the receive circuitry
Here i uploaded some datasheets for radio ic with mechanical tuning (do not need to program a MCU). http://maximradio.altervista.org/datasheets/ They are from KTmicro, AKC Technology and Silicon Labs.
