Yeah I picked one up on eBay a few months ago - around $80 including
shipping.

It's a good radio. Better sounding and better FM reception than the 2200
(which I also have), but the 2200 is a much better MW/SW radio. The 1150
sounds nearly as good as the Grundig 650 (which I also have), is plenty
sensitive off the whip, but it's total lack of SW tuning aids (no
bandspread, no bandwidth filters, no SSB) make it nothing more than casual
listening SW radio. However, careful and VERY SLOW tuning will reveal
loads of signals, but you have no idea where you are because the dial
calibration is so bad.

But for room filling sound of local AM and FM - and the occasional SW
station once you get used to the tuning - it's hard to beat. The 70's
styling is complimented by the CB reception - very 70's indeed!

Sorry, I had a brain fart. The 1150 does indeed have a BFO, and a Fine
Tuning knob on the right side.
