Description

The Tecsun PL365 radio is the latest model in our truly handheld range of multiband radios. The unique shape and size of the Tecsun PL365 design were based on the requirements of our military and law enforcement customers so that the radio could easily fit onto a belt clip or backpack pocket. This has to be the smallest HF receiver with SSB capability in the world!

Features:

  • AM/FM Tuner
  • Digital Signal Processing
  • Auto Tuning and Storage via Easy Tuning Methods (ETM)
  • SSB Capability
  • 450 Memory Positions
  • Alarm & Sleep timer
  • Displays signal strength in dBuV
  • Displays signal-to-noise ratio in dB
  • Battery power level display and temperature sensor

 

Features carried over from the previous model (Tecsun PL360) include the use of an external ferrite rod antenna for AM reception. The use of an external ferrite rod antenna with the Tecsun PL365 is to overcome the form factor limitation of the handheld style and provide impressive AM (MW) performance for its class. Further improvements in AM reception can be achieved by utilising the radio with the Tecsun AN-100 AM Loop Antenna. 

The Tecsun PL365 Radio is an ideal radio to use for AM/MW EMI surveys because of its external AM antenna, ability to accept customised antennas and its display showing signal strength in dBuV.

The Tecsun PL365’s RF design has been upgraded and now utilises the SiLabs Si 4735 chipset (the earlier model PL360 utilised the Si 4734 chipset). The new chipset adds Single Side Band (SSB) to the Tecsun PL365 as well as increases the coverage of the SW band up to 30 MHz. The Tecsun PL365 further improves the audio clarity of received signals by utilising Digital Signal Processing technology to process the received audio and cancel out any background and RF noise.

Supplied Accessories:

  • Stereo earphones
  • Carry case with Belt loop
  • Clip on external wire antenna for FM, MW and SW bands
  • English User’s Manual
  • Detachable AM Ferrite Rod Antenna

 

Improvements have been made to extend the battery life of the Tecsun PL365 out to a maximum of 225 hours on a set of three Alkaline AA cells. Additionally, the Tecsun PL365 also includes internal charging capabilities to recharge AA cells (not supplied) via the radio’s USB connection port.

The Tecsun PL365 is one of the few radios in the Tecsun range to provide an external antenna connection for the AM/MW band. Hence our Q3070 Outdoor MW/SW antenna is perfectly suited to this model. The Tecsun PL365 provides extended FM coverage down to 76 MHz, allowing the radio to receive broadcasts not intended for the general public. The Tecsun PL365 supports our patented Easy Tune Method (ETM) which is a one-touch automatic scan and memorise feature that scans the selected band and stores received signals in a temporary memory allowing for quick selection between stored signals. Available in grey only.
