Pleas tell us your thoughts/results of this particular comparison. I
just bought the E10 and am very impressed with its performance though I
miss the SSB a little. Not that style should decide a sale but I think
the little E10 is the most attractive set produced in years.

Right off the whips, I prefer the E-10. It's easier to use, the dispay is
better, and the sound is better. In my opinion, for the camparisons I made,
the sensitivity of the E-10 also edged out the 1103. I give the 1103 a
slight edge on selectivity, and the 1103 does have SSB which for the price
is a plus. Overall, for a non-SSB receiver, I prefer using the E-10 over the
1103. I like the filters and the antenna tuner on the E-10, the display,
the dial light, and the front layout all, IMO give the E-10 the edge. And,
like you mentioned the E-10 is a very attractive unit along with the feel of
the surface make it a real pleasure to use.



Thanks,
Scott

Recently I bought a Kaito 1103 & the E-10, and took them on vacation,
and
had a great time comparing them, using different antennas etc. It was a
lot
of fun, and I did not spend a fortune.
