New RX for portable use...

[Trev - K6ESE-2]

Hi gang,

Just though I'd pass this info on to the list. I'd been looking for a little
wide range receiver to take along with the K1 while camping so that I could
hear some SW and SSB/CW on bands that the K1 didn't cover. Found it!

Check out the Degen 1103. Chinese made, about the size of a KX1, costs about
$60 including shipping from China, PLL Tuned, 100KHz to 30 MHz continuous,
plus FM broadcast band. Variable BFO for SSB/CW use. 24 hour clock, 2
alarms, frequency memories, direct frequency input via keypad. Big LCD
display, narrow/wide filter setting. Local/DX (attenuator) switch. Really
neat little radio. Comes with 4 rechargable batteries, ear buds, plug in
wire antenna, carrying case.

I listenned to quite a few stations tonight both CW and SSB. Also SWBC. It
works great!!!

If you'd like one too, check out E-Bay and look for the seller Liypn.

Wayne, hope this was OK to post this here. I figured it would be as it
doesn't compete with Elecraft products and other guys may have wanted it for
the same reason.

Hi Trev,

I saw a review on this some time ago...I *think* it was the same
one...and it seemed to indicate that tuning SSB/CW was a bit strange
in that you could only program SSB/CW reception in one particular bank
of memories or something strange of that nature, and you couldn't
switch modes easily either. Am I confused, is this not the problem
that it was made out to be, or is this correct?

I think you might be thinking of the 1102, as this has a SSB switch on the
front that turns on the BFO. Really easy to use and neat little rig...
