Which one to choose? Comparing the XHDATA D-219, D-368 and Tecsun R-909 #shortwave #radio

This video is a shortwave comparison of three popular and good budget radios, namely the XHDATA D-368, XHDATA D-109 and the Tecsun R-909. The D-368 and D-219 appear to perform quite similarly and quite a number of viewers have asked me to compare these two. It was interesting to compare them side-by side on the same signals. You can hear these three radios on three different signals: one weak, one of average strength and one very strong signal. The signals are Reach Beyond Australia in English on 15460 kHz, Adventist World Radio on 17725 kHz and BBC in Burmese on 17515 kHz. This comparison was done during daytime, from 13:35 UTC (15:35 my local time). All signals received at my usual location on Johannesburg, South Africa. I used a 10 metre long wire as antenna, the weaker signals were not coming through on the whip antennas. Sound recorded digitally to the Tecsun ICR-110 and synced to visuals afterwards. 00:00 Comparing three top budget radios 01:38 Reach Beyond Australia from Kununurra 05:00 Adventist World Radio from Madagascar 08:07 BBC in Burmese from Al Dhabayya, UAE 10:00 My verdict
