@@jammaleck weird: my batteries last for weeks. Radio still working very good

indeed, sound on the retekess sounds fuller. thanks for watching

​@@DXPedro but to tell you the truth I endup using more the 310et because of the batteries.

@@1michelmarques indeed: the drain is very little. even if you dont use the radio for months, batteries (rechargeables in my case) last for ever.

I really can’t say. I do know there’s an airport a few hundred km away. Also, there’s a light house at around corner so I’m kinda lost there

It is indeed!

Pretty cool :) ✌️

So true! These days you can get these radios on a supermarket. Good base, good reception and you can even charge your phone 😅✌🏼 73s

Try get it on AliExpress. Thanks for watching ✌🏼

As for frame switching, I cant really say. But: audio codecs only on Kodi or VLC. no Dolby HD Audio is supported, say on amazon or hbo apps.

Mine just broke. Two months ago. It pained me immensely 😢

Thanks for watching, mate! ✌🏼

Well tell that to my fried raspberry pi I had: both “burned” after a power surge 😅 73s

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching. Have a great weekend, over RSA. ✌🏼📻📡

@@DXPedro Thanks!

Indeed it is, Ken-Sama! I love the Countryside. 73s! 📻🌈📡📻

Assim parece, Rafael. Abraço! ✌🏼📡📻

Indeed. Thanks for watching ✌🏼📻

Thanks for the view. Yes, rain season is coming for Japan. I remember it when I was in Japan in 2017: I was in Hiroshima and I have never seen such rain 🌧️ Have a great weekend! ✌🏼☀️📻

Thanks Albert! You too. Have a great week! ✌🏼📻

Sobre que versa?

@@DXPedro Radio Rumania Internacional deja de usar dos de los cinco transmisores de RADIOCOM que utilizaba hasta ahora debido a recortes presupuestarios del gobierno. También la potencia de transmisión se reduce a la mitad. Los transmisores que siguen en uso son: Tiganesti, Saftica (ambos cerca de Bucarest) y Galbeni (al este). Casi seguramente transmitirán solamente por una de las dos frecuencias utilizadas hasta hoy, y esto afectará a los programas dde onda corta en los siguientes idiomas: rumano, inglés, francés, alemán, español, ruso, árabe, chino y hebreo. Radio Romania international stop using two of five shortwave transmitters of RADIOCOM from 1 August 2023 due to funds cut. The transmiters wich remain in use are: Tiganesti, Saftica (both near Bucarest) and Galbeni, (at the east). Too, power transmission is half than used until today. Almost surely will transmit only on one of the two frequencies used until now, and rhis will affects programs in shortwave in the following languages: romanian, english, french, german, spanish, russian, arabic, chinese and hebrew.

Say whaaat? 😅

Most probably. Yes. Thanks for watching. Have a great week! ✌🏼📻

I’m so happy you’ve finally managed to copy RN Zealand on your QTH. Please, do post some UA-cam videos. Have a great week my friend! ✌🏼📻📡

Yes. This video was prior to the radio went “live” on the market. 73s

@@DXPedro I just got one of the XHDATA D-219s for my computer room. The lower part of my two storey house is a dead spot for shortwave signals and even FM in certain rooms. Besides, no shortwave radio likes to be in the same room as my gaming PC whenever it is switched on. My only all-analogue small radio is the Tecsun R-909 and it's not very good at FM reception compared to a DSP radio, including the D-219. I have tried the D-219 for SW DX'ing, it's acceptable but not an enjoyable experience to search for signals, unlike my PL-660 or 680. But the D-219 is very affordable and its speaker sounds much better than the Tecsun PL-330 and R-9090. BTW. the heart of the D-219 is an inexpensive Skyworks Si 4825-A10 DSP chip. It's less expensive than the Si 4734 found in your PL-310ET and is specially made for mechanically tuned AM/FM/SW radios. 📻👍

HAI! Thank you for your comment!

Thanks for watching my friend. 😎

@@DXPedro Por nada! UA-cam hasn't recommended your channel for a while and I thought I'd check my subscriptions to find your channel to say olá to you! 📻😁 By the way, I just had gotten myself an RTL-SDR Blog V3 (the original one, not some Chinese copycat) and am experimenting with it on my laptop. I first installed it on my desktop PC but it's located downstairs where HF reception is non-existent, but FM broadcast is easily received. I decided to install SDR Sharp on my least used Windows 10 laptop and it's working well in my bedroom upstairs, but the supplied telescopic dipole antenna with the 23-foot reel wire isn't pulling in the signals that well. My next purchase will be the MLA-30+ active antenna as that's what's recommended by one of the UA-cam reviewers for HF! 73 from 🇲🇾 to 🇵🇹 ! 💓

@@StratmanII as always, thank you for dropping by, my friend. For what im reading, get the YouLoop antenna. It works wonders on highly dense RF areas.

Tecsun Pl 310 ET

Tecsun all The Wayyyy! 😎📻💥

Ciao. I've only heard it in february. nothing since then. grazzie per ascultare i 73s.

probably, but i dont thinks its that poor SDR. in any case, worth considering that chance. thanks for watching and 73s

Sad news. It’s just brilliant old technology that brings people together and is super useful in case of natural disaster. The more I listen to SW and LW/MW the more I’m into and the more I learn Thanks for watching ✌🏼📻

Hey my friend. Hope you had a nice Easter time. To be honest, it sounded a like Argélia was messing with the Irish signal, tbh. I’ve been quite successfully in the past, catching Ireland, but never at this time Of the year or and time of day. Have a nice week. 😎

@@DXPedro Was a good easter thanks you ? RTE 252 Khz used to be 500 Kw but last few years it's down to 100 Kw or less. Of course RTE are using Co2 emissions targets as 1 excuse to close the transmitter instead of closing it at night like they used to in the past like many transmitters closed at night. RTE using Co2 as excuse while at the same time encouraging people to use apps that need a data center that uses hundreds of times the energy. Back in the day 252 Khz when at full power used to get reception reports from as far as Brazil. Sad times for Longwave in Europe.

@@o00scorpion00o Hundreds of times? I would say it has to be thousands if we consider not only the data centers, but also mobile networks that are used to deliver the data and the smartphones themselves as well. Simple portrable LW radio takes few dozens of miliamps and lasts for decades, while phones rarely last more than 10 years due to software/network/etc "upgrades". Shameful RTE management is using greenwashing and manipulative tactics to justify its wrong decision. If they really cared about the environment and budget, they should use renewables to power the LW transmitter, instead they decided to make their own contribution to the e-waste problem.

@@qwertyamdx Yes, that's s good point, the mobile networks need energy too. + data centres in Dublin, Ireland are forced to use diesel generators at certain peak times, the bigger data centers especially + they run the generators at times for maintenance. RTE have the public brainwashed with Co2 and climate change that they could be fed any story and they'd believe it. If RTE said that very few People listen to LW252 and very few radios, cars have LW then they may have a valid argument but greenwashing is wrong. RTE should have kept the 567 Khz 500 Kw transmitter working because a lot more People would have had MW and still do today in homes and cars. There was no reason RTE had to keep LW 252 going 24x7, they could have easily halved energy consumption by running it from 8am until Midnight.

Thanks for watching! This station will disappear on April 14th, Tengu. 73s

Arigato, Tengu Sama

Olá Leandro. I have no idea. I assume so, but I haven't really used the timer. Maybe a good idea for my future video. Have a great week and thanks for watching. :)

Olá Sidney! O tecsun é incomparavelmente superior ao Retekess. Mas se procuras apenas um radio para FM barato, Retekess é o caminho. $15 contra os $40 que custou o tecsun. O único defeito que aponto nos radios tecsun em geral, é ausência de RDS. Não entendo porque não têm. Obrigado por assistires. Boa semana.

@@DXPedro eu tenho um retekes achei ele não muito bom em ambas as faixas, só pegou bem com longwire, peguei um tecsun esperando chegar!

@@Sidney_Gouveia Qual modelo? :)

@@DXPedro Pl 310 et

@@Sidney_Gouveia que maravilha! <3

Thank you IGOR! Same here. Radio still has a lot to go. Have fun, my friend.

yeah. at the time it was crazy ^^ thanks for watching, Emil.

Olá joão. Obrigado pelo comentário. Também o comprei mais para escutar radio no trabalho, do que pelas capacidades DX. Utilizo amiude para gravações, embora, já tenha lido que o audio não é stereo, mas antes dual mono a 128kbs. seja como for, gosto deste equipamento. e recomendo :) abc e obrigado por veres o video.

Thanks for watching 👌🏼

Hi. you can buy separate rechargeable batteries and charge them via the radio. but its advisable to use external charger. 73s and thanks for watching :)

Well it could be less biased 😅 but I agree, it’s one of the best out there. Thanks for watching 👌🏼📻

it actually comes from the middle of the atlantic. But i do love the nostalgic feel of BBC on radio :) 73s and thanks for watching! :)

May be,transmitter of bbc in the middle of the atlantic and signal comes from there,but studio of bbc is situated in broadcasting house in city of london,in uk. I can also receive bbc in english in belarus on short wave.

@@ИгорьБелевич-ш4э absolutely right! :) have a great week!

amen! but right now its priced bellow 10$ USd. looks solid.

@@DXPedro Hi Pedro, any idea if the D-219 has an analogue or a DSP based tuner? I recently bought an XHDATA D-368 for a family member. It uses a DSP chip so tuning across the dial will mean hearing the "chuffing" sound. If the D-219 has a DSP then it will be the cheapest DSP based shortwave radio ever! 📻👍🏼

@@StratmanII im not sure. i thinbk taht in their video presentation they state is a DSP device. but again, not sure. have a great week my friend.

No i do not. sadly. did you find out? 73s and have a great weekend!

Grazie, Giuseppe! have a great weekend! :)

mine already stopped working, sadly. thanks for watching, David.

well, i like it too, and yes, it definitely shows some overlapping with AM xD Thanks for watching :)
