Default Sony 7600 Or Kaito-Degen 1103?

I have had my Sony 7600 GR for ten years with no problems. Its main
advantage in these times of weak and fading reception is its
synchronous detector. This helps reduce the worst effects of selective
fading and can turn a bad signal into one that is comfortable to listen
to. Over the years, mine has been knocked around a bit and I had to
replace the antenna whip. This wasn't the radio's fault but Sony parts
are expensive.
