I came across this radio about a couple weeks ago and wanted to give it a try. It has some amazing features for the price point and although its the same basic design as the Tecsun pl 360, the County Comm has single side band which the pl 360 does not.
If you enjoy FM, AM and Shortwave as well as listening to the ham frequencies on hf this radio is a must have.
