I love mine!! The FM stereo is amazing, it pulls in distant weak stations and it sounds great. I do miss the SSB, but my radios with SSB are much larger and they eat batteries.
I have the Tecsun 380 radio since 2018 , Its easy to operate and catching USA Shortwave Stations is good with antenna wire. My next shortwave radio will be a step up in price Tecsun PL-330 which should be better at world reception in the Shortwave.
I thought hard about this radio, but opted for the PL-390 , which is basically same radio, but added speaker, and has a longer whip antenna, and [ supposedly] a longer ferrite (MW) antenna. My favorite Tecsun radio. (( the price is $10. oo {U.S.} extra - but in my opinion, worth it [ unless you need a more pocketable radio]. (( the PL-390 also has a “Line-In)). 📻🙂
Really? SONY ICF-SW100 and ICF-SW7600G just to name a few. These offer continuous coverage 150 - 29999 kHz, SSB, excellent build quality and high quality components. Despite being 20 years younger than SONY radios, this Tecsun is still behind.
I have a Tecsun PL 380 radio and the keypad with FM Set over it and the numeral one doesn't work. It is well past warranty. Would you know where I could send it for repairs?
..I like its size, shape and it's really looks portability and quite sensitive..It really worthwhile..👍👌
Great review I have one on it's way as we speak and can't wait to use it. Thanks to your comment section also I've picked up a few tips there.

Great video
Please excuse my question. What is the difference between the two Radios? ( PL 310 and PL380...) I have no idea.....
very similar radio but the 310et is newer and seems a little more sensitive
@@OfficialSWLchannel thanks a lot!
Will the tecsun pl 380 receive 10, 20 and 40 meter. I.E. Ham Radio frequencies?
Yes but only am no ssb bfo
Best rig for ssb in my experience is PL 660
Tecsun PL-310et and PL-380 are surly the best in 40 bucks prize-range.
I captures plenty of stations with ETM mode with longwire
I have one.
