Tecsun PL990 Digital Shortwave AM/FM Radio with Sideband Reception and MP3 Player Matte Black

Es un excelente receptor, se siente de buena calidad, pesa lo suficiente y tiene buen sonido. La recepción en onda corta también es muy buena con su antena telescópica que mide unos 97 centímetros, su último tramo es muy delgado por Loque se debe ser cuidadoso. Funciona bien el Bluetooth para escuchar música desde tu teléfono y tiene buena duración de la batería. Sólo hay un detalle en la perilla de sintonía, se endurece pero sólo un poco en algún punto al girarla, pero poca cosa. Por lo demás un radio fantástico para la escucha de onda corta. Para FM es muy bueno porque tiene un sonido equilibrado, si tuviese RDS sería mejor, pero no es imprescindible, toda la vida escuché radio sin necesidad de ello.

Great radio. Unfortunately, comparing with 660, removed airband. Threre is no FM demodulation of 27MHz (I believe implement it would not be very hard) :( Surprisingly in USA a huge amount of AM stations! (I didn't use external antenna). It has USB-C. USB DAC recognised as "buildwin media player". 32GB card was inserted into radio. .ape (profile Monkey's Audio High), flac 16*44.1 plays (files must be in root directory: player doesn't scan directories!) .flac 24*96 and .api encoded with profile Monkey's Audio Extra High -- skips. Has BT receiver, didn't try to pair. Charger has 2*USB-A ports, 100-240V. To sum up: I recommend to buy. But if it would be option to choose airband + FM on 27MHz, I'd choose it instead of useless for me "multimedia". P.S. Don't forget to remove protecting plastic from accumulator before first usage!

Un magnífico receptor multi bandas y muy intuitivo en su uso, además, la recepción de estaciones de larga distancia mediante a.m., LW, ISW es excelente. También, el reproductor que incluye este magnífico receptor de radio es muy práctico cuando queremos escuchar nuestros audios favoritos en diferentes formatos. Como incondicional RadioEscucha desde siempre recomiendo la compra de este receptor de radio

Solidly built. Great reception on FM with whip antenna. AM reception is ok but terrific with a loop antenna. Shortwave is good with whip antenna and pretty good with exterior antenna. Controls are easy to use. ATS is a great feature in scanning for available signals in the MW, FM and SW bands. SYNC option is pretty useless as it is in most TECSUN SW radios. I am impressed with the Pl-990 and recommend it. The extras in the box such as external SW antenna, leather like carry case and charging block are nice touches. I like the PL-990 over the 330 due to it being larger and having a kickstand. Reception quality is similar in both with the 990 sounding better due to its larger speaker. A word of caution on the 990s whip antenna. The tip is very thin and easily bent unlike the 330 which is smaller and more compact. I will be purchasing the H-501 when it is available in late June. Tecsun is quality and their radios are widely praised by the experts.

I've been using this radio for about 7 weeks and am pleased with my purchase. It's been used primarily for Medium Wave (AM Broadcast) and FM reception. Audio quality is good for a portable radio. Expect to spend a bit of time familiarizing yourself with the features. The selectivity between AM stations 10 KHz apart is akin to a $500 or greater receiver. Tecsun must be using DSP to produce such selectivity. Sensitivity is very good as well. On the shortwave side, reception will benefit if using an external antenna. It's sad, but world-wide shortwave broadcasting has nearly gone "dark". What remains, that can be received in North America are marginal broadcasters, often with very narrow audiences. SSB reception of amateur radio is stable but again improved with the use of an external antenna. (albeit requiring nothing elaborate) I'm very pleased with this radio. I would rate it as one of the best full feature, general coverage portable radios available in 2021. As a kid growing up in the 1960's and 70's, coping with unstable analog equipment, such a radio would have been miraculous.
