This radio won't receive DAB broadcasts so if you're outside the capital, you're not going to hear this station. Mind you, if LBC have a secret SW transmitter on their roof, then you should be able to pick-up all the music & gossip & travel updates wherever you are in the world ! Nevertheless, this is an excellent 'take-on-holiday' radio ! **Q: What is the actual battery life of the device? How long does it last on a set of 3 AAs?** A: Approx 18 hours continuous play **Q: Can radio be charged out of box. Or should I buy plug** A: No problem at all. You put Ni-Cd batteries into the radio and recharge simply using a USB - MiniUSB cable with a 5volt power supply, like smartphones or other devices. **Q: Hi does the unit have RDS functionality?** A: NO ! absolutely not ! The Techsun PL-360 doesn't have RDS (so, with the volume at zero, just by looking at the LCD display, you won't be able to tell whether it's Beethoven's 4th on Classic FM or Wham!'s Last Christmas on Absolute 80's. There isn't even an alpha-numeric feature (so you won't be able to ascribe a radio station's name to it's frequency.) It's still a good radio though ! ## Frequently Bought Together - Tecsun PL-360 Digital PLL Portable AM/FM Shortwave Radio with DSP, Black - Sangean ANT-60 Short Wave Antenna - Tecsun Universal AC/DC USB Adapter AD-800 for Kaito KA Series Radio & Tecsun PL Series Radios --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/51067830-tecsun-pl-360-digital-pll-portable-am-fm-shortwave-radio](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/51067830-tecsun-pl-360-digital-pll-portable-am-fm-shortwave-radio) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-11-11*
