Thanks Gilles for the video I have bought the QoDosen SR-286 and the Raddy RF919. I bought the QoDosen from Aliexpress for $113 but now I would just buy the QoDosen DX-286 for $80 basically the same radio with improved secondary function selections. The RF919 I am hoping for a firmware update to allow me to use SSB on MW for DXing purposes, and to make selections for all the 10M NBFM,SSB without having to selecting radioband button to use NBFM. It is more sensitive on WBFM than the QoDosen radio, however the QoDosen does not have NBFM or SSB which makes a direct comparison difficult. The QoDosen’s TEF6668 chip has a built-in Noise blanker which helps on led lights interference and other related noises, this gives it a jump ahead of the SI’s chips in most other radios , but no SSB …😢! 73! Have a great day!. P.S. I bought the pre-order model of the Raddy and it took almost two weeks to receive it after purchasing it.
Are there any hand cranked radios that are not garbage? It could be just simple radio no fancy adjustments. Just something small to bring to a trip or when there is no power.
My only comment that is.negative is the muting is on but according to raddy a firmware update will be comming .Other thah that it wofks well on all bands and im very pleased with it. Thahk you.RON Z. WA3090SWL.

And we're still waiting for the new Eton HD.....a revised Elite Executive.
I do not think they will get it out after the Eton Satellite HD Fiasco
@@OfficialSWLchannel That's too bad 😞

I have not seen much that are worth buying
Maybe consider C Crane Solar? Expensive but of good quality.
