Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Barry, who writes:

Thank you for the tip about the XHDATA deals on Amazon. I picked up a D-808; I’ve always wanted one.

Your readers might be interested to know that the Qodosen DX-286 is also on sale for $67.99 on Amazon. I already have one and love it. I paid $80 last year for it. This is the lowest price I’ve seen for it. Thanks.

Thanks for the tip, Barry! Click here to check out the Qodosen DX-286 on Amazon.com. Note that this spring sales event only lasts a few days and while supplies last. Also note that this link is an affiliate link that supports the SWLing Post at no cost to you!

Please note that two excellent shortwave portables are on sale during Amazon’s Prime Spring Sale:

XHDATA D-220 PortableThe D-808 remains a favorite among SWLing Post readers for its all-around great performance (Carlos Latuff even uses it for many of his recordings), while the D-220 earns praise for its affordability and simple, ultralight design — you might remember Jock Elliott’s “Nutty Idea” DX Contest last year, inspired by this little radio.
