Hi Gilles. If Tecsun don’t supply you with a review model, I’d certainly be happy to join in a crowd fund. I’d rather listen and watch your review. If the radio is any good, I’ll buy one in a heartbeat. I’ve held off the original version for many years, owing to its limitations. Thanks for the video. Ian, G6DEQ, UK.

It's a smart looking radio, and it is a Tecsun, so we hope it will be a good one. Definitely not a pocket radio!

Very nice radio. I still have my old Satellit 650 in a box in the basement. I like the operating concept of these devices.

Hi, its have DSP, the batteries are 18650 and is à little more sensitif than the former model some more features but like all this receivers is overpriced, the former version with à good antena performs very well

I like the look of this radio, always have but it would take a lot of radio for me to pull the trigger especially @ $445 U$D on anything since I've got a Drake R8. I may be tempted to get the Qodosen SR-286 TFE6686, but I'd really like to wait and see if they come out with SSB, Synch AM.

The 750 is a beautiful radio in the grand tradition of the previous Satellits. The worst thing about it has always been the antiquated chip memory storage process. I don't think anyone ever felt comfortable with that memory storage process. We can only hope that the addition of 200x will give it a more modern and user friendly memory storage process. It also looks like you can select various battery types. Hopefully it will have recharge capabilities within the unit, or at least memory protection when you take the batteries out...

Wow! Exciting! Always liked the design of the S2000 but disappointed with its price and performance. It will be very interesting to learn what your thoughts are if you're able to get one to review. I am quite surprised with this announcement, I thought Tecsun was done with high-end shortwave and SSB radios. But given the popularity of the S2000/750 despite its flaws its not really a surprise after all I guess that they followed up with the S2200... hopefully its as good as or better than the PL-990x and H-501x. I see it listed for sale at Tecsun Australia, but not Anon-co.

Just by the bandwidth and display .. it is totally different
@lovetheblue66595 ай бұрын
Just from what we know so far: * A selection of 5 bandwidths vs 2 on the original. (And the "wide" BW was too wide to be useful plus it led to the digital frequency display being off by up to +- 3 kHz. This is why engaging any of the scan modes on the older model caused the radio to switch to the "narrow" BW.) * Triple Conversion vs Dual Conversion. This should provide better image rejection and reduce overload issues. * Sync function for weak signals. * Switchable LSB/USB SSB now uses fine tuning to provide pitch control rather than a BFO. * Improved sensitivity for MW and FM.

I have an old S2000 which performs pretty well in spite of it's bandwidth problems etc. No way I would consider the new S2200. Yes it appears to have improvements but at the price and today's tech I'd like a waterfall and spectrum display. To keep costs down they've obviously used the old cabinet to keep costs down so where would the display fit? Also looking at the band coverage on VHF it appears to start at 54MHz. Why not start at 50 MHz and include the 6M ham band? Overall it looks like an improvement over the S2000 but at the price, no way. 🥴
@nathanpetrovski75255 ай бұрын
I personally don't think a waterfall or spectrum display are necessary. You can still have a good radio without those. I think the VHF coverage might be a typo on their end because with a lot of their newer receivers, the FM coverage will start at 64 MHz because there are some places where the FM broadcast band goes down that low. I could be wrong on that though who knows.
@robmccarthy10185 ай бұрын
@@nathanpetrovski7525 True but it's real nice to see what's going on either side of the received frequency. I'm looking at this considering the price of S2200. As a licensed Ham operator I really like the spectrum/waterfall display on my transceiver. You might be right about the 54MHz VHF. 😀
@hg-sx5nk5 ай бұрын
Just like S2000 was a PL-660 in a bigger box, I bet this one will be a PL-880/990 in a larger case plus an VHF Air converter. And, to avoid investing in innovation, they seem using the same display... no RDS again!
