Default Kaito 1103 -- vulnerable to ESD?

FWIW, it seems the Degen 1103 has been upgraded and now has some ESD
protection.

"While I was in the case I noted a number of differences to the
original circuit and pictures on this site.
The whip antenna connection now has a couple of back to back diodes
across it to discharge ESD."
