Best Radio for Traveling!

When I tried this product for the first time, I was surprised at how clear the reception was. It's great for camping, traveling, or just listening to music at home. The radio is easy to use and the sound quality is impressive. The size is perfect for packing in a suitcase or backpack, making it an essential item for any adventure. The only downside is that it requires batteries, but that's a minor con compared to the great features this portable radio offers. I highly recommend this product to…

Pros
  • Excellent reception of worldwide radio stations
Cons
  • Limited radio station presets compared to some other models

It's not quite what I expected, overall it's ok.

Noisy terribly, collects interference and makes them louder than the signal. It seems big, but empty and light in the hands. 880 and 990 are an order of magnitude better in sound, and listening to bluetooth and a SD card is really cheap. There is no super sensitivity, everything is the same as everyone else, only there are more hisses. SSB is also a hat sound, especially 4kHz just whistles on the ears. I am completely disappointed, the 990 is the best dsp from tecsun.

Pros
  • Appearance, two batteries
Cons
  • Sound

Brings back the joy of radio madness

I am a radio amateur with 60 years of experience. From the early Zenith to Sony to Grundig Satellite and ALL the latest Tucson and Sangean models! This radio is my favorite to sit back, relax and just enjoy! Reception on all bands is good from whip antenna, Stereo FM is great! The SSB utility is great and so easy with big buttons and tuning controls. The backlight stays! Contains 2 batteries that can be switched on and off like an extra gas tank on an airplane (I'm a pilot). Setting up wideband

Pros
  • Robust construction
Cons
  • Negative is present
