Operation
The Sangean ATS-808, or the Siemens equivalent RK 661, is a compact pocketbook-sized double conversion radio which uses PLL frequency synthesis circuitry to cover the entire AM range from 150 - 29,999 kHz and the VHF range from 76 MHz (Japanese VHF band) - 108 MHz. The German version from Siemens only covers 87.5 - 108 MHz.
The frequency can be entered directly with the numeric keypad, alternatively you can use the UP/DOWN keys or the tuning knob with two tuning speeds.
The set does not have a BFO for receiving single sideband transmissions.
The two settings of the digital clock can be set to local and world time.
Technical principle
Double conversion, digital frequency synthesis using PLL circuit.
Components
The set is equipped with semiconductors.
