OK, that's the good news: I just bought a cheap SW radio (10 euros, with cassette recorder and -non working :)- digital clock, batteries included) and I made...
Dear group, a 1103 of mine has this behavior: everything seems to work ok, except shortwaves (1715-29999KHz) using whip or external antenna. Would be this...
The Eham owner reviews are a help once again. Now I can understand/appreciate some comments about operation weirdness, but Im not moaning as it is a great...
Please beware the US line voltages is 120V while the UK's is 240V AC. Likey your PSU may be designed only for operating either on 120V or 240V (but not both !)...

I have a number of good to excellent shortwave radios (Sonys, Sangeans, and an Eton to mention a few) and I find myself reaching for the KA1103 (I have the...
Hi everybody, I bought a DE1103 some months ago and I must say it's a marvelous receiver if I consider the frequencies above 500 kHz. The LW band is very poor...
My new DE1103 (received yesterday) will not turn on! Have owned the KA1103 previously so am familiar with unit! Have tried everything! Any suggestions??...

Have you checked the battery voltage? I just bought an Eton E10 (I think made by Degen); the supplied NiMh batteries were only .70 volts and wouldn't run the...
I own both (actually the identical Radio Shack DX-398 and Kaito KA1103) but haven't tried either on LW. Using the internal antennas the KA1103 is much more...
Dominique: I am the proud owner of both a ATS909 (actually a Radiolabs Super 909) and a KA1103. I like them both. A lot. In a true torture test, at high noon...
Hello all, It seems that I might have read something about this before, but a search did not turn up anything. I notice that when the radio is running on...
Hi Phil, I agree with you about what you are experiencing. I must say I was about to post a question concerning that ! My DE1103 is'nt modified at all, I have...
Hi Greg, Thank for your reply. Yes, that's what I think, the DE1103 is'nt worth a lot on the LW band. The test you made gives an evident result, i.e. the...
Hi all, I bought an 1103 that had the audio clipping issue that a number of the earlier units suffered from. Changing the resistors to knock down the gain did...
Dominique & Phil The whip isn't used on AM bcst.band. The AM antenna is a ferite antenna (probably on the left side of the radio). If you had read the...
Are there two version of DE-1103? Mine don't have a LW band , I have the FM, MW, (75/90 M start at 3.1 MHZ to 4.1 MHZ) 60 M, 40 M, 41 M, 31 M, 25 M, 22 M, 19...

Greg, At LW frequencies reception is via the built in ferrite rod, not the whip. I hope you were orienting each radio for best reception in each case. I...

Thanks for your reply. Seems like none of these suggestions actually worked, even when moving the narrow/wide & local/dx selections powerfully. The radio was...
