I recently picked up one of these fine little radios and it performs very well. It holds its own against my Sony ICF-SW7600GR, but at about half the price. The audio quality of the Kaito/Degen 1103 is better, in fact, than the Sony. My only gripe is that the radio arrived sporting a couple of dings in the grill area of the radio. The small dents appear to be cosmetic flaws and the radio performs well, but it points to the level of quality control among Chinese manufacturing companies.
Nice demo of a very good receiver! I have an Etón E5 which is the same radio inside, and I'm very satisfied with it. My E5 is modified with narrow AM and FM filters making it a remarkably capable "DX machine".
Gracias. No está modificado, está tal cual vino de origen. Recuerda que esta prueba se ha efectuado sólo con su telescópica. Para tropicales va bien, depende de tu ubicación. Hay gente que lo tiene como primer receptor con escuchas fantásticas en esas difíciles bandas. Muy recomendable, barato, sencillo de manejo y con unas prestaciones que superan en mucho al precio que pagas por él.
Hi Jay, great to hear from you, where have you been? I really like the degen de-1103 for the price it's a very good Rx. And it's very good on all bands. I would highly recommend it, I love my degen. Take care Jay, 73

Buena calidad del De1103. Si tuvieras algun video de radioaficionados en 7 MHZ en SSB para ver como se eschucha seria estupendo.
Gracias

There is something wrong with your radio, it has all these foreign languages coming out of it... ha ha
I have a KA1103 for about 3 or 4 years. Great radio.

a que se debe tan buena recepción amigo ¿acaso es la altura o estas en verano? chao desde Chile.

Pues nada extraordinario. Recepción dentro de casa no muy alta, con las limitaciones que esto supone, antena telescópica y alimentación a red.
Gracias por tus comentarios.

Impresionante calidad recepción. ¿Está modificado o esa recepción es la habitual? ¿Que tal va para bandas tropicales?
Un saludo, gracias por colgarlo, y buenos 73´s!
