Re: [IRCA] DEGEN DE1103 or KAITO 1103

["Dennis Gibson" <wb6tnb@xxxxxxx>]

I've had one for a year and a half and highly recommend it. Spend a few 
extra dollars and get the Kaito KA1103. The Degen DE1103 comes with a 220 
volt AC adaptor and no US warranty. The Kaito comes with a 120 volt AC 
adaptor and a US warranty.

Reviews (including mine) are at: http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/5071

My only complaint is that the speaker grill dents easily. I'm extremely 
careful with my radios but have somehow managed to put two dents in the 
speaker grill.
