| Video Discription | There are very few mid-range radios (which I define as radios that cost less than $100) that have inputs for external MW antennas. The Qodosen DX286 and SR286 are two, but I sometimes forget that the Tecsun PL-368 (and also the PL-360 and PL-365, and the CountyComm GP-5 and GP-7) have inputs for external MW antennas. These radios ship with small external ferrite antennas that you plug in, but you can actually plug in any MW antenna. This video is a comparison between the Tecsun PL-368 and the Qodosen DX-286 on Medium Wave, using the Tecsun AN-200 loop as antenna. I plugged the loop into the Qodosen and the Tecsun, and compared reception on some distant signals, from 350 km to 1600 km away. The loop is much easier to operate when plugged in, in my opinion. I think you can be certain that you get the best possible reception, as opposed to when you pair the loop passively (the most common way on other radios), which can be a bit of a touch and go method. You can hear a nice Radio Lesotho ID right at the start of the video, and an ID and jingle from Emissor Provincial de Manica right at the end. The Qodosen DX-286 still trumps the Tecsun PL-368, but the Tecsun actually performed really well when using the plugged-in loop. This was just after sunset my local time (18:00), 16:00 UTC. So, quite early for MW DXing, but I still picked up some good signals when using the loop. 00:00 Qodosen DX-286 vs Tecsun PL-368 01:08 Radio Lesotho 639 kHz 03:00 Emissor Provincial do Niassa (Mozambique) 1260 kHz 04:04 Radio Botswana 531 kHz 06:04 Emissor Provincial de Manica (Mozambique) 1206 kHz |
