QODOSEN DX-286 Introduction

1.DX-286 ( the performance is the same as QODOSEN SR-286 with more user-friendly operation) adopts NXPs high-performance automotive chip TEF6686 to ensure superior selectivity and ultra-high sensitivity.Better reception experience for you!

2.FM band support 64-108MHz, support RDS/RBDS Radio Data System, 5 kinds of frequency range selectable,6 kinds of step selectablesuitable for diferent areas to receive;there are 17 kinds of bandwidth selection, with excellent selectivity.

3.S/N Ratio ≥ 60dB, clear signal, low noise, built-in adjustable antenna attenuator, improve the overload resistance;LW/MW/SW band with built-in low-noise amplifier switch to improve the reception sensitivity.

4.All bands support external antennas, using an external antenna can make the DX-286s sensitivity even better.

5.LW and Mw bands support switching between telescopic antenna and internal ferrite bar antenna. In an outdoor setting with minimal interference, reception is even better with a telescopic antenna or external antenna.

18650 BATTERY POWERED/INDEPENDENT AMPLIFIER DESIGN

1. The DX-286 uses a button-top 18650 battery, not a flat-top, that can be replaced easily. It can also be recharged with a standard 5V USB charger when the battery is dead. (Avoid the use of fast chargers to avoid damage).

2. The DX-286 uses separate amplifiers for speakers and headphones to reduce interference and enhance sound quality,with greater dynamics, wider range and less distortion.

DX-286 supports an external antenna interface and all frequency bands including LW/MW. DX-286 supports an external antenna interface and all frequency bands including LW/MW.

External antenna interface, supports all bands including LW/MW

1. Improved signal reception quality: By connecting an external antenna, the radios sensitivity to receiving radio waves is enhanced, thus improving the quality of signal reception and allowing the radio to pick up more channels and clearer audio.

2. Expanded reception range: An external antenna can help broaden the radios reception range, especially in areas with weak signals or limited signal coverage, allowing for a wider range of reception.

3. Reduced interference: Indoor environments often contain various sources of interference, such as electrical devices and metal structures, which can affect the radios reception. Connecting an external antenna allows the antenna to be placed in a location with better signal reception, reducing the impact of such interference.

4. Convenient adjustment of antenna position: External antennas typically come with longer cables, allowing users to conveniently place the antenna in different positions to achieve the best signal reception. Users can optimize reception by adjusting the antennas position and direction.

ANTENNA SWITCHING

LW/MW has three antenna switching modes. Choose the right antenna for the environment to get the best reception.

1. In the case of indoor or electromagnetic environment with high interference, it is recommended to use Internal ferrite bar antenna to receive (ANT INT).

2. If you are outdoors or in an electromagnetic environment with little interference, you can try to use Retractable Antenna to receive (ANT EXT), Retractable Antenna can bring you a better reception experience.

3. To achieve better reception, you can use external antenna in ‘ANT EXT’ mode.

ANTENNA ATTENUATOR

1. Enhance Reception Clarity: An attenuator controls signal strength, preventing overloading and distortion, ensuring clearer and more stable broadcasts.

2. Mitigate Interference: It minimizes interference from strong electromagnetic sources like storms or power lines, improving reception performance.

3. Improves Selectivity: In multi-frequency environments, it helps filter out unwanted signals, enhancing the receivers focus on the desired broadcast frequency for accurate and clear reception.

Built-In Low Noise Amplifier Switch

1. When reception is weak, you can enable the signal amplifier (AMP ON) to increase the strength of the signal, making it clearer.

2 If there is a signal overload when receiving a strong signal, you can turn off the signal amplifier (AMP OFF) to reduce overload.

3. When using an external passive antenna, it is recommended to turn on the antenna amplifier (AMP ON).

4. When using an external active antenna, it is recommended to turn off the antenna amplifier (AMP OFF).
