    Thank you so much my friend for posting the true review of this radio d808 . I too have. The 2023 version and was always apprehensive of its performance as i saw lot of comparison reviews and thought the 1st version had better sensitivity and selectivity. You cleared my doubts. Thank you for the precise and actual review . Keep up the amazing work . Looking forward for more videos on your channel. 73❤

    Thank you for this video. I have a Sihuadon D-808 with the original circut board in it. I really like it's performance. But you say the new version has better reception on SW. Also I have heard about people saying because they removed the front end SW filters you get some FM breakthrough on the SW band on the new version. After hearing that I wasn't going to buy a new one if something happened to my current radio. But you said it still has the SW front end filters, and the new version seems to preform slightly better than the original version. After watching this video I woukd not hesitate to buy a new one if something happens to my current radio

    Да, китайцы как обычно всё испортили в погоне за прибылью. Если им хотелось удешевить это радио, они могли сделать это с меньшим ущербом для производительности. Нужно было заменить узкополосные перестраиваемые контура набором коммутируемых фнч, предотвращающими прием на гармониках гетеродина. Это было бы проще и не требовало бы кропотливой заводской настройки. При этом работало бы почти как вариант с полосовыми фильтрами (особенно если учесть низкое качество этих фильтров в первом варианте D808).

      @@MrVishalarwade no, these were 2 separate observations by the reviewer. Anyway another reviewer from USA said he didn't see any difference in SSB reception and sensitivity.
      For me when I switch to SSB, I thought I got some stations, but I realised they were just the same stations in normal shortwave stations visible in SSB (both usb and lsb) but with lower audio quality, (even after adjusting via +/- fine tuning).
      Is that a normal thing?

    • @MrVishalarwade
      @MrVishalarwade  6 місяців тому +1

      Let me clear your doubts:
      1) Yes, it takes bit longer ( might be few million seconds) to switch between normal mode to SSB mode but it doesn't affect it's reception in any way.
      2) While you are listening to Showtwave stations in normal mode & if you switch to SSB of course you are going to hear that same station in SSB .

      " Every master was once a beginner "
      In the radio community, DXing stands for "distance" or "distant" (D=distance X=xmitter or transmitter) and refers to the hobby of receiving and identifying distant radio signals. DXers are enthusiasts who enjoy tuning in to stations from faraway countries.
      DXing is a popular pastime among radio enthusiasts, DXers must overcome factors such as atmospheric conditions and interference to successfully receive distant signals.
