Just arrived today putting the PL880 through the tests as I’m a late night AM DXer so far Excellent receive the Boston, chicago Toronto and other stations. As Compare my receive the same stations on ETON 750 ELITE, CCRANE Skywave SSB, Note use telescopic whip each device. The TECSUN PL880 best sound speaker to me less fading. Enjoying my new 880 and oh my Sangean AT909X2 soon to arrive. My opinion so far i like the ergonomics tune knob and the fine tune is nice. The PL880 is easy to use nothing overly complicated. It came in a well packed box and i like the zipper case. I always have a shortwave receiver with me for short travel trips at home and keep one at work local stations for road traffic alerts and weather. This Tecsun PL880 is an excellent radio.

I use this radio to hunt down power line noise that is interfering with my amateur station. I can find the general location of the noise and pass it on to the power company.

I am very pleased with Tecsun PL-880 ssb reception is on par or better then my Grundig satellit 700. The small size makes it very easy to take anywhere. It has all the features I need and the zippered case protects it from damage. All in all itn is a great little radio. 73
