This radio has an incredible secret, you can listen VHF and UHF, including air band. Try this: first choose a OM frequency, for example 1225 KHz, press and hold REC (you must have a memory card inserted), when it start recording press FM / AM and MODE keys. That's all, now it tunes 122.50 MHz. It works by tuning SW as well, the frequency in KHz goes to VHF or UHF. Enjoy!

Hello, Ham Radio Crash Course, I must agree with you that the audio quality on the Retekess is fantastic! You gotta like its MP3 Player/Recorder as well! The AM/FM is above average whereas the SW is average to below average! Sensitivity and selectivity could have better specs. You will need a wire antenna to enhance shortwave reception! All in all the Retekess V-115 overall is a surprising performer for the price especially considering its sound quality!

I still love it especially AM at nught.

I worked in electronics manufacturing. We made our top quality name brand and all the clone brands. It was the same thing with a different name printed on the case. When I fixed poly-bag machines I noticed same thing with beans, potatoes and carrots. The just changed the label on the bag so generic is the same carrot as the top name brand. You have to look very close at every detail because the clone might be the real thing manufactured in the same plant assembly line.

I own the Reketess clone of this radio, paid $15 for it on ebay. Seriously, this receiver it has to be one of the best bargains around. It performs way, way, way above its price point. Sensitivity is excellent and the audio quality is just exceptional even compared to consumer radios in the over $100 bracket. Audio-wise it puts to shame some of my $500 plus wideband scanner radios/transceivers (are you listening Uniden and Yaesu). I was easily able to pick up the stronger SW stations and I'm sure with one of those reel-type antennas it would do even better (have one, just never needed to use it). Add the fact that it also has a built in mic and can record on-air broadcasts and comes with a rechargeable battery and a USB cable for charging makes it a no-brainer and a steal at $15 (I've seen it sell for anything between 13 to over $35. Would make a great present for a youngster that's shown an interest in radio.

In my house it picks up the "local" AM stations loud and clear but not the 50K Watt clear channel station 150 mies away. But that being said its a neat little pocket radio.

@johnbeckham1483 3 жыл бұрын
Shortwave radio reception on the Retekess V-115 is a low average perhaps but an external wire antenna helps and your body's own induction that it can provide this radio by holding it helps amplify the shortwave reception! It's great for MP3 playing/recording indeed! For the money it's a great investment indeed!

Wow - surprised you reviewed this little oddity. I tried everything to get the SW to work better - including disassembling it to see if a direct endfed connection to the ant connection on the board would help - no luck. However, for MW DX if you just create a 4 inch diameter, 7 loop wire inductor to a long antenna - the AM MW works great! FM is fantastic as well as the MP3 player. Nice little radio (if only the SW could work).

I like this radio a lot. It's always stashed in my case ready to go for a quick radio listening. Trouble is, if I scan for SW radio, though sensitive, I need a very wide, unobstructed area to scan for SW signals. I'm in the northern Philippines, and I usually scan for SW signals from nearby China and Japan at the nearby beach during Black Saturday holiday when most AM stations are signed off. Nonetheless, neat little radio! I love my V-115.

It's a very good radio for the price. However it suffers from atrocious internal noise in the am band. It can be enhanced but reducing the FM antenna wire length and shielding the circuits with aluminium foil. It's way better but not perfect and noise remains. But it's worth the price only for the mp3 player (with random mode), excellent speaker and mp3 recording functionality.

Maby 1-2 inches.then put a heat shrink tubeing (tune for signal not wanting to swamp the work) apply heat. And clip your wire as you would normally. The rig pops up. And with tubeing it works some what. I use mine on a net frequency. So as not to wear out the can. V-115 DOOING ssb. Kv4li
