Degen DE11 vs Tecsun PL200, any opinions?
Ok, my PL200 is cheap and cheerful but has been a good pocket radio and
I've had no problems with it but unfortunately it has been dropped too many times. SW is handy but it mainly gets used on MW. I was thinking about getting another one but the Degen / Kaito looks very similar. Does anyone have any experience with one of these? I don't need stronger reception but the Tecsun is a bit clunky and awkward, and has bad hiss on AM though earphones. I was considering the DE1102 but I'd rather have a slightly more conventional radio at the cost of a little performance, and it's a bit larger. Many thanks everyone! |

Tecsun & Degen are the same company. See:
www.degen.com.cn/english/info.asp The Degen 1103 is a fine receiver for the $$$. Good reception on AM/FM/ and SW. |

Degen DE11 vs Tecsun PL200, any opinions?
This msg was supposed to be part of this thread... but the google bug
bit: The DE-11 is $35.99+$20 shipping on eBay (Liypin). It does not seem to be dual conversion, which is probably why it is less expensive than the DE-1105. All the dual conversion radios say dual conversion on Degen's website (do a web translation of their website). This radio does not. The same with Liypin's ads. Liypin never replied whether it was dual conversion or not. The DE-11 doesn't have a tuning knob -- but does have an antenna jack. The DE-11 also shows the time at the same time as showing the frequency. wrote: Ok, my PL200 is cheap and cheerful but has been a good pocket radio and I've had no problems with it but unfortunately it has been dropped too many times.
