The PL660 has the the AM aircraft band, which can be an advantage in 
direction finding. They are fine radios.

I use a Tecsun PL-660 for RFI tracking.  It is very sensitive, and has 
two steps of attenuation.  It has a jack for an external antenna, which 
disables the built-in whip. Frequency coverage is good.  It has a BFO, 
which is helpful in listening to certain types of noise.  It has a 
headphone jack which is good for a noisy outdoor environment.  I use 
alkaline batteries, and battery life is very good.  In the AM band, the 
built-in ferrite antenna is very directional.  I've never wished for a 
feature that it did not have.
