Works fine for such a small radio.Quite a good frequency range and good sensitivity.Battery life is quite good also.

Goede , goedkope kleine ontvanger die “alles” ontvangt op de band.Gekocht om in mijn rugzak mee te nemen als ik ga wandelen.Zo groot als een spel kaarten.Leuk om altijd bij je te hebben om naar muziek , wereldontvangers , etc …te luisteren.Vervangt zeker niet een gespecialiseerde radio.

This little shirt pocket radio does more than my full size Sangean does. If you are a radio enthusiast- this is a great radio... however... the user interface is complicated- probably more complicated than the average person is willing to put up with the learning curve needed to operate everything. The antenna seems a bit flimsy in the very top section... I fear it will not last long.. However, this little radio is packed with capability and really performs. Nice sound quality.

UPDATE:I purchased another one of these from a different vendor. The price has dropped to nearly half of the original cost. I discovered that there at least 4 different versions of this radio, manufacturered by one company HanRongDa, and branded by Raddy, Retekess, and HRD. The newest version contains a MOSFET preamplifier between the antenna and mixer. The newest version works quite well as long as you don't attach a long outdoor antenna. The sensitivity is quite good, but this set can be overloaded due to poor dynamic range. That said, it is a technological marvel with no less than 2 Receiver chips and a DSP chip. I discovered that using the headphones it improves reception. I love the little set, but I don't recommend it if it's going to be your only radio for listening to shortwave.ORIGINAL REVIEW:This little receiver is pretty cool, but has its drawbacks. The sensitivity below about 5 mHz is pretty poor. The Menus are difficult to see and hard to navigate. It's much more sensitive on the Upper Shortwave Bands, CB Band, and on the VHF/UHF Bands. Where I can clearly receive CHU on 3.30 mHz on my Tecsun PL-330, using the built-in Whip Antennas, they're not audible on the Raddy. The Scanning Features on the Raddy work quite well. But programming the frequencies into memory is not straightforward. The one big plus is the wide range of coverage in such a small package. Oh, and as other Reviewers have noted, the end of the built-in Whip Antenna is hair thin and easily breakable. I'm 71 and have been a Radio Enthusiast since grade school. I've owned literally hundreds of radio receivers in my life. I wound up returning the Raddy and purchased a Vintage Hammarlund HQ-180A to restore. That's a laugh because the Raddy weighs onces and the Hammarlund weighs 60 pounds! 73, KG7M

Raddy RF760I am giving this radio 5 stars based on this:_Extreme frequency range including SSB (Single Side Band) for Amateur Radio._VHF/UHF for GMRS, FRS, Amateur Radio & public service (police, fire, etc)_User Definable Band - any lower/upper in 30Mhz - 520Mhz range_External antenna jack_External earphone jack for FM stereo._Built-in battery (replaceable) and USB-C charging._Ability to continuously display signal strength and signal/noise ratio_Very readable amber backlit display._Plenty of memories - 100 per band_Ergonomics. This radio is so small that it fits in the palm of your hand and you can operate almost all the controls with your thumb.For about $60 you can get a small portable radio that can “do it all”This radio will not replace a radio dedicated to a specific radio service but at this price point it’s “good enough” in a pinch.With variable bandwidths, fine tuning and ability to do LSB/USB it can pick up amateur radio on the SW bands (search “Amateur Radio Band Plan” to find out where and “Amateur Radio HF Nets” for schedules and frequencies)Of course it does well on the traditional broadcast bands on MW and FMVHF/UHF can get you GMRS, FRS, Amateur Radio, and Public Service (police, fire, etc) with 100 memories. Check out radioreference dot com for frequencies)One additional feature is the ability to create a user defined band (for auto scan and store) in the range 30Mhz-520Mhz. So, if you just want to listen to the amateur radio 2 meter band you can custom define this band with the limits of 144Mhz-148Mhz.Bottom line, for about $60 you get the whole shebang that is “good enough” at this price point.

I’m convalescing now and am getting back into radios to keep myself entertained for the duration. I’m fascinated when tons of stuff is stuffed into a small package and this is the case here. There are lots of tiny receiver radios on the market today but this is the tinyist and most sophisticated. It does everything a receiver can do and does it across all available frequencies.. it is a challenge to figure out how to use it but many generous you tubers have taken the time to make videos on the subject to help out. There are the usual complaints that it doesn’t do this or that quite up to standards - the boring reviews of folks whose way of living is to complain - but - give me a break. This is the size of a pack of cards and lets you listen around the world in all the modes available..Not perfect? What a surprise. Endlessly entertaining? You bet!

Suite à un p'ti problème sur un premier appareil. Le vendeur a pris contact avec moi et m'a proposé de m'en envoyer un autre ce qu'il a fait rapidement, et le nouveau est impeccable. Je suis très satisfait car ce p'ti scanner est nickel. Moi qui suis un p'ti amateur radio depuis bien des années j'en ai eu des appareils entre autre Sony, Yaesu pour ne citer que ceux là. Bande radio amateur, aérienne, mw, fm c'est très bien, les autres pas encore testées. Plein de réglages bien utiles. Quand on a pris l'habitude très facile à utiliser. Bon rapport qualité prix. Merci encore au vendeur pour son sérieux.

SW Band has serious bleed over from local MW (AM) stations making reception of the desired SW frequencies impossible. SSB function defective - no sound, no signal or even static and dual function not accessible in SET menu,Weather WX Band - strong stations produce excessive audio distortion making it difficult to understand spoken words & Air Band has the same problem.Manual says to change BW in WX however SET menu does not allow assess to BW in WX band.AM & FM function is average.Too bad - this radio sounds good on paper but misses the mark.In it's current state, it's far too expensive for just the average FM and AM pocket radio function.I've reached out to the seller with these issues.I'll update my review if I receive another unit that functions better.
