Re: [IRCA] Tecsun PL-606 DSP Receiver Review

["Richard Allen" <richarda@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Gary.  You once again did an excellent review.  

I've been using a PL-606 for about a fortnight and found it an excellent ultralight receiver. It has excellent sensitivity and selectivity. Before TP propagation went downhill, I was able to hear signals from Japan on the barefoot PL-606.

  Hello All,
   
  For those interested in the latest technological advances in AM-DXing  
  portables, a full 6-page review of the newest Ultralight radio sensation (the  
  compact PL-606 AM-FM-SW-LW receiver) has been uploaded to DXer.Ca (at 
  _http://www.dxer.ca/file-area/cat_view/87-ultra-light-radio-files-area/94-ultralight
  -radios_ 
  (http://www.dxer.ca/file-area/cat_view/87-ultra-light-radio-files-area/94-ultralight-radios)  ,  the first option), to the Ultralightdx Yahoo 
  group file site, and also to _http://www.mediafire.com/?gcu6zgyxb724cy2_ 
  (http://www.mediafire.com/?gcu6zgyxb724cy2)  .
   
  Detailing Tecsun's successful effort to combine the class-leading 100 mm  
  loopstick (of the PL-310 model) with 1 kHz DSP selectivity in a very small  
  cabinet, the article includes many photos, information on PL-606 quirks and  
  advantages, and the results of a four-band competitive performance test  
  against the PL-380 and PL-310 models. At $39.95 (plus $20.00 shipping from Hong 
   Kong), this breakthrough Ultralight model may well be the best combination 
  yet  of AM sensitivity, selectivity and portability.
   
  73 and Good DX,
