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 http://tinyurl.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Sun, 27 Dec 2009 23:01:05 EST From: [email protected] To: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Subject: [IRCA] Tecsun PL-380 Four Band Performance Review Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" 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 _http://www.dxer.ca/file-area/cat_view/87-ultra-light-radio-files-area/9 4-ultralight-radios_ (http://www.dxer.ca/file-area/cat_view/87-ultra-light-radio-files-area/9 4-ultralight-radi os) (first option on the list), to the Yahoo Ultralightdx File site at _http://f1.grp.yahoofs.com/v1/MB84Sys-x-IbMqOD-ZwXwX3RQNsxUflWJ-7Gxni3E4 WiTwq OJ1mo7kPkBPKujhaPxp6eDi0lr_M1HLlezF2YBJBT7-e7ixg/3%20Radios%2C%20Reviews %2C% 20Manuals/Tecsun%20PL-380%20Review.doc_ (http://f1.grp.yahoofs.com/v1/MB84Sys-x-IbMqOD-ZwXwX3RQNsxUflWJ-7Gxni3E4 WiTwqOJ1mo7kPkBPKujhaPxp6eDi0lr_M1HLlezF 2YBJBT7-e7ixg/3%20Radios,%20Reviews,%20Manuals/Tecsun%20PL-380%20Review. doc) and also is directly linked at _http://www.mediafire.com/?gzwukykhyo2_ (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) _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
