Re: [IRCA] Tecsun PL-380 Four Band Performance Review

["HASCALL, DAVID CIV DFAS" <DAVID.HASCALL@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Gary (and all);

Thanks for the expert review on the PL-380!  I also appreciate the much
easier to manage "mediafire" link.  The other links truncated and had to
be stitched together but I still couldn't get the yahoofs one to behave.


A suggestion and a request for anyone posting especially long links is
to use something like Gary did to "shorten" the link.  He used his
mediafire account to do this.  If you don't have access to such a
service, you can use tinyurl.com to automatically shorten the link.
This will ensure that the link doesn't get truncated in some email
programs.

Thanks and 73,
Dave in Indy

Hello All,
 
For those interested in the DXing capabilities of Tecsun's newest DSP  
pocket radio, a thorough 7-page review of the PL-380 AM-LW-FM-SW
receiver 
(covering the development, capabilities and relative performance  of
this soft 
mute-free model) has been uploaded to DXer.Ca at

  and  also is directly linked at

(http://www.mediafire.com/?gzwukykhyo2)  .
 
Included in the review is a four-band Shootout with the PL-310 and D96L

models (except on LW, where it is matched against the PL-310 and
PL-300WT), 
and  a discussion on how its relative AM-DXing value compares with the
PL-310 
and  D96L models. An addendum provides additional information, with
links to 
 demonstration MP3's of the PL-380's DSP filtering options, and a
recently  
developed 7.5" loopstick transplant modification to greatly boost the 
PL-380's  LW and MW sensitivity on all frequencies. Hopefully this
detailed 
review will  answer all your questions about this innovative new DSP
model.
 
73 and Best Wishes,
 
Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA)
