Hi all: Just posted to DXer.ca is a review of the new Kchibo D92L Ultralight receiver, which like the Grundig G8 (Tecsun PL-300WT) incorporates the latest DSP technology from Silicon Labs.
In summary, as a barefoot receiver it is not a very good performer because of a poorly-designed and/or faulty LCD screen which emits excessive amounts of hash. However, when mated to a passive loop or external antenna, it really shines, and the multiple bandwidths (1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 khz, per sideband) make it a potent DX receiver. Several DXers have also just received its big brother, the D96L, and are busily evaluating whether or not it is an Ultralight and how its performance stacks up, so stay tuned!
