iRiver X20 MP3 Recorder - a DXer's Review

I've posted a mini-review and photos of the iRiver X20 MP3 recorder on my Perseus receiver blog; readers of rec.radio.shortwave may find this model to be useful for DX recording as I do: http://perseus-sdr.blogspot.com/2008...r-x20-mp3-reco... 73, Guy Atkins KE7MAV Puyallup, WAwww.perseus-sdr.blogspot.com The Zen V and V Plus (2G and 4G respectively) are nice units but a tad delicate. My display died, but the unit still works strong. I know of 10 people who have them and only one had his die and that was after a nice wash, rinse and drier cycle. The price is comparable but the iRiver X20 may have the advantage in the SDRAM slot Have you hear any reviews about how stout the display on the X20 is? Terry |

iRiver X20 MP3 Recorder - a DXer's Review
wrote in message ... snip Have you hear any reviews about how stout the display on the X20 is? Terry Hi Terry, I've not heard any feedback about the X20's display, but my impression is that is is pretty sturdy. The case doesn't flex much...it feels stout to me, despite the very light weight. I think it would be a good idea to keep the screen covered as much as possible though, such as with the modded Verizon Chocolate cell phone case I describe in the blog article. One advantage I see to the X20 over the Zen V series is the 64 kbps recording format, for smaller file sizes. The lowest rate that the Zen Vs will record is 128 kbps. Guy |
