The question is, did they consider any of your feedback before putting out this model to the public for sale? My understanding was that this wasn't a production model yet. Plus, I would prefer the charcoal or black color for the case over the color of the sample you have. I would really like to see them fix that s-meter flaw, too. So much for updating their radios to something with more modern accoutrements such as backlighted keys, RDS, weatherband (for US customers), etc.
I sent in my comments and apparently this is why they sent out this unit to me, so I can tell them what is wrong before the official release to the public
sold at 410€ in Europe, taxes included 😵😵💫😟my fellow europeans, stick with the PL660/680 or PL330, they're perfectly fine and provide almost the same results 😇
It might be a nice spare of emergency radio.
I just buy this radio because of your review and for the better, more easier to read scale as in operation is very similar to de D-219 but with a better speaker, Bluetooth and audio files reproduction. It allows to insert MicroSD card completely, as some units that I have protrude and it can be damaged if the unit get dropped on this side. It have low noise reception, but as you said, a very weird tuning. I use it also as my phone speaker when listening to a radio stations app that plays those around the world, as it works as if I listen to an actual station in the radio. I like it very much. Thanks for the review, this unit as very useful, as it has a great sound for its size. 73😊
Interesting. Worth considering because of the price. Btw, try flashing new "Goshante" firmware on an ats-20 receiver, the annoying muting issue is almost resolved.
Hi, nice radio. But don't expect to much for the price. This radio like the Qodosen is unavailable on Amazon UK. Thanks for the content. David M0DUU
There a lot of cheaper radios, like you have shown. I can get a RSPdx r2 for about $100 lest, and it has a much wider coverage.
Speaking of expensive, Ham Radio Outlet has the Yaesu FT-710 on deep sale through the end of this month. The Field is $876 USD and the AESS base station version is $944. Normally $1,300. It's number four on the Sherwood list.
Hello there. From watching your reviews, I would say that sounds like a reasonable price. I'm surprised. Thanks for the update.
If a high end radio was in the budget i think i would go for the PL880 and save a few bucks and still get a great radio.👍
Thank you!
I really enjoy the band scans especially when you explain the signals. Keep these coming!! (Moncton, NB)
I want it, but for almost $400 not gonna happen
Scared to think what this could be in the UK! The Tecsun 8800 is £350 and the 990 is £280 on Amazon. Eek!
When will this radio be available to get in the USA
I use the Sony ICF 2003 and The Eton Elite for SSB...
4000 to 4500khz....is Marine....in my area it is Latin American at Night...I monitor this band all the time...i know these signals by heart ❤
Hi, may I ask where did you get that stand? Thanks
A fan of my channel 3D printed one for me
That's funny. Didn't they say HAARP was shut down? I guess that was a lie as well.
they never said it shut down, they sold it to the university of Fairbanks.

This is official, Tecsun S-2200x radio $372.00

I’ll pass on the D220 this time around. I just bought an Eton Elite Executive and will begin my foray into the wonderful world of SSB. I have the D219 and the only way I can see to improve it is to add FM stereo. Still, if you have the D219 it may need its sibling in your collection.
... 15095 khz..
I have a green one. Cost me 1112 rupees. Am satisfied with it although i feel it is a bit pricey. Shortwave although compressed, still works good. I normally listen to BBC on 12095 khz with clear reception just on the whip antenna.
Fianally something with aa battery
and sports ball.
Great you got one, too. I don’t know if you have seen my review of it. I’m looking forward to seeing yours. [ with tuning, especially on SW, I found that by using my thumb nail and going one notch at a time is the best way to tune. Have fun. 📻🙂
So ... on the tuning steps. For the 16.4 MHz wide SW band what are the steps? If the steps are 1 kHz, then that's 16400 steps from one end to the other! If the steps are 10 kHz it's a little better ate (surprise) 1640 steps ... but still .. .how many steps per revolution of the thumbwheel? It just seems like it would take forever to get from 49 m to 13 m!
It does take a very long time if I wanted to go from one end to the other, steps look like at least 5 kHz . difficult to really know
Thank you for the video. I received this radio a week ago. I've been able to receive some shortwave stations in the evening. It's a pretty good little radio.
I own an 880. I think i may just add this to my collection. Tecsun is just great quality unlike a xhdata wb-109 i bought
They release crap like this all the time unfortunately. Sadly I don't think real brands like Eton or Tecsun will release new products any time soon. They both have most of their product line discontinued and no plan for new release.
Tecsun just released the S-2200x I reviewed it, coming out in september. Eton I don't really care they have made such crap lately
@@OfficialSWLchannel They haven't done much lately at all, their last good product IMHO was the Elite Executive which itself dates from more than a decade. Anyway I'm glad Tecsun released a clone of the Eton Elite 750.
The new XHDATA D-220 is a bargain!
I still have a portable AM radio I received for my 10th birthday and it also works. I'm 67.
Very good! Look forward to the review. Does it have an earphone jack? The crammed SW band not so much of a concern now with few SW stations on the air. Can’t imagine what it would be like in the good old days!
Wow Gilles so expensive I don’t know if I can get a loan to buy one…😂! 73! Have a great day!
Where can i buy it ?
On the bright side, it's nice that 99.5 FM Montreal is launching a news station on the same date, August 26. It's not comforting, however, that they will be broadcasting QUB radio programming.
It stinks we still have 1010 wins news
INDEED - and 1010 WINS is top-notch
I wonder why they gave up on the callsign instead of just keeping it for ESPN radio? ESPN radio format in itself has been under heavy decline for years now also and WFAN dominates the sports talk in New York. Edit: WCBS FM will continue on 101.1 playing classic rock.
I have 7 radios here in Florida that receive Wx, 3 which alert. Especially with the hurricane/tornado possibilities here ! 73, I’ll look for you on 10M FT8 sometime, 73 Rick, de KO4OSA
👍
Sad to hear the format is going away. I am near Philadelphia and we still have the All News station KYW 1060 AM. It broadcasts a big signal at night. It is simulcast on 103.9 FM now and I worry how long they will keep the AM broadcast. So long CBS 880.
The best explanation of SD I've heard by anyone!
Thanks you for sharing the information because that my Dad and myself use to run a DX Station back in my days in 1958 years ago and we give out green stamps to every one 😊
I was going to make the Tecsun PL330 my first SSB radio, but I have and like very much the Mini and Traveler III. The Executive does almost everything so well, uses AA batteries and comes with an adapter that can charge batteries internally and will do the same for the Traveler III. The addition of the air band is most desirable and RDS is a plus. Will eventually get a very nice Tecsun.
Sad news that another all-news station is going off the air.
Band scans are always fun. Thanks
can i blame my vaping addiction on when i went to go get 18650 batteries?
This is tragic. Why quit on a station that is successful and that contributes so much to our understanding of REAL news. I will greatly miss the anchors and the traffic/weather on the 8's!
