I think it is the transformation ratio.... Any extension is not common. My opinion is that a transformer with the ratio 1 : 1 will works as well..often found...
recently I've made a small mobile antenna for my DE that can be mount on a window or balcony or car via a pipe and Windshield Suction Cup for PDA (or any...
For what it's worth, when I first got my 1103, I just put in ordinary AA alkalines and it worked fine and I have just been using that type of battery and the...
Hey folks, it's just now, that I realized via the manual, that the external antenna is meant to lead somewhere outside. (I really don't know too much about the...
http://www.radioscanner.ru/receivers/review/degen1103_eng.html There is more info on that site, e.g.: 1) put in google "radioscanner.ru". 2) search "the web". ...
Hi Jens, That antenna is more for temporary installation. Let say on a holiday trip for excample. There is special antenna wire for sale. My opinion is that...
Plan of a simple Inverted L Antenna http://www.dxzone.com/cgi-bin/dir/jump2.cgi?ID=3275 Don't worry about any length mentioned in the plan just build it to fit...
Hey you two, thank you for your suggestions. However I'm all thumbs regarding electronics and messing around with it. You wouldn't believe how proud I was to...
.."Oh..oh..beam me up Scotty, that man is underestimating himself!!" Hi Jens, A lot of us, owners of a 1103,are starters in DX-ing (receiving). I am a starter...
Hi, I just saw your loop antenna in the photos sectio, are there any details for the transformenr, VR and resistor in the tuning control? Would like to try and...
Hi Steve, There is no transformer. VR?....no....resistor?...no Only a varable capicitor of, this is a gues, appr.350 pico farad (pF) In the top of the big loop...
Hey Jan, your english is just fine - so far, I understood everything. I tried to move around the active loop antenna, and I indeed noticed, that the reception...
Hi wind_nv, Did you ever have a chance to compare your creature with Degen DE-31 aerial in terms of performance? Strong points, weak points, etc, etc? Cheers &...
Hi Jens, There is a difference between your area and my habitat i think. I live in an appartment, 10 mtrs / 33 feet above sea level. The man made noise and...
Hi Dmitry. No I didn't. Because I don't have the DE-31. But, I did some magnetic loops in different variants and I always was not satisfied with results, it...
Since I got my 1103 three weeks ago, I have tried the long wire antenna with excellent results over the already very good internal whip. QTH: Boise, Idaho in...
At last, someone using a traditional antenna, I just wish that I had the space. A lack of noise would be nice too .... don't forget the South Pacific, Radio...
... It's very interesting! Thanks for the info, I tried to find simple schems too... But there is one small problem... The "existing replaced diode" is built...
... "blurred" ... It seems to me that the de1108 is Tecsun PL-600. Because, DE1108 was planned in 2004 to be made, and both Degen and Tecsun are one hangar, so...
I don't think so. While Degen is a subsidiary of Tecsun, they have a different product line. Also the blurred photo, and the sharp one below it are from the...
Hi, I am a newbie to this group, but a bit of an old hand to radio. I recently purchased a Degen 1103 and have had a bit of play with it. It certainly lives up...
I got the crappy green batteries also; I just simply use other nimh's or alkalines. Not going to complain too much since the radio is such a steal! Travers ...
I've had my Kaito KA1103 for a little over a year. The battery icon shows only one segment all the time, even when the stock batteries have just been charged....
External control of the receiver board appears to be relatively possible, potentially expanding the frequency coverage. Signals conducted on the 13 conductor...
Hi, dr group members. Frequently I read about insensitive 1103s, having lost their Q1-FET. What does insensitive mean (whithout lab'measuring)? I owe a DE1103...
