I got the 660 and it's very good SW rx plus a good portable noise finder. I
highly recommend it. Price is right too. Batteries are easy to change, a user
friendly radio which has SSB and SW too. Good rig

Just curious as to how the specs stack up to the PL-660,
which I already own, for RFI-chasing.
Perhaps someone looking at alternatives may want to consider
this ... or not?
The manual says it has a signal strength meter, external
antenna jack, AM/LW/FM-stereo, complete Shorwave spectrum
with SSB (150-30000 KHz) and VHF Aircraft band (118-137 MHz).
Price-point is better ...
