Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Gareth Buxton, who recently received the latest availability dates of the new Tecsun PL-990 and H-501.<\/p>\n

According to Anna at Anon-Co, both radios should start shipping in January or February of 2020. Gareth included the following screenshot which also notes the new AN-48x active loop antenna<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Still no firm pricing information. I will be reviewing both of these radios as soon as they’re available, so stay tuned!<\/p>\n
