I have this same radio and use it constantly. It is the stand-by radio as far as I’m concerned. It’s MW section is awesome. Great selection of bandwidths as well. Beautiful headphones experience. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Thank you. I just wish XHDATA (Sihuadon) would do something to fixed the popping on headphones when changing bands. My Radiwow R-108 has that same problem. Otherwise, it's a great radio.
the weather is transmitted via local stations in practically every country in the world, the weather band is old hat and antiquated, never been in a country that still relies on a weather band other than the USA.
THATS AN amazing raddio hope u enjoying sw and mw and fm :) one of the best radio its the TOP 1 radio in the market even better than sony and sangean and others old brands that stops production ! greeting from italy
You're welcome. They are getting a great receiver even with the flaws when listening on headphones at low levels. It has great reception that's almost on par with the Eton Elite Executive.
@@tvradio1972 I have the Executive too and I agree with you. Be careful of the D808's telescopic aerial. It has a tendency to be become loose from its mounting within the case. I usually carry a Phillips screwdriver with me when I travel with it!
The XHDATA D-808 sounds pretty good. The Radiwow R-108, now known as the Sihuadon R-108, has great audio. Thank you for watching and have a good weekend.
Привет! Стоит такой d-808 сегодня со всеми скидками 5600 рублей (70$)., какой лучше купить за эти деньги или меньшие, в лес, в тайгу, в Якутию, так иногда время скоротать, покрутить...
OfficialSWLChannel has a video comparing the old and new D-808s, including the front-end filters. Here is the link below. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iXVSOXuTeWg.htmlfeature=shared
Hi, friend ! Thank you very much for such a good review and detailed answer. differences between these receivers. I want to order the same receiver of the new version. to your collection. There is tecsun pl660 and tecsun pl330. I think the xhdata d-808 will perform well in field conditions, just like the tecsun pl660. Thank you very much for your review. definitely a like from me. I'll have time to wait for you on my channel. 73!
There are still SW stations left. It's mostly outside the U.S. although some exist there like WWV, WBCQ, WRMI, and WWCR, just to name a few. You can also receive stations from other countries depending on shortwave propagation conditions.
I've seen reviews of the D-109, and they are mixed. Some of them tend to have overload issues if you live near strong MW stations. I might pass on buying that one.
yeah that’s a pain for ham band scanning, and true of all the ham bands on this one. For looking for SW stations, tho, it’s kinda nice to just scan the SW bands.
@tvradio1972 you gave a detailed and comprehensive breakdown of this value for money radio which 99.9% of us appreciate. Then pops up a single celled omoeba that can only criticise. How pathetic. Greetings from outback Australia,just purchased this radio yesterday and subscribed to your channel 😊
