I just took delivery of an 1103 from brochhi. received it ten days ago.
It has the funny extra sticker on it and there was a tiny slip of paper
inside the box, looks like a Quality Control tag. It has a date: 04 08 11.
Does this mean November 8, 2004?

The radio works very well and is alot of fun to operate. I am really
enjoying it.

Ditto. I have found good performance on SW, MW and FM without using an
external antenna. The audio is quite good for its size. I think it's WELL
worth the price! Even the tuning knob works well on mine. I've paid $200 or
more for Sangean/RS models where the tuning via the knob was PATHETIC. If
you haven't tried an 1103 don't knock it : )

From brochhi it was shipped to me for $62.00. From date of me shipping
him a MO to the day it arrived UPS on my doorstep was ten days. I asked
him via email for the English manual, he sent me a link and I printed out
the manual myself, very pleased.
