I agree with Sanjaya, the Kaito SW radios, while
not perfect, have set a price/performance ratio
that's hard to beat in today's receiver market.

I can remember when the Grundig YB 400 sold for
$250, the Sangean ATS 606 was $200, and so on.

One of the things that I've always liked about
Sangean is that when they release a new product
it is well thought out, sturdy, and have fewer
problems out of the box.

This radio (model 1102) show to be SSB capable.

Will they receive SSB or LSB with the fine tuning or does tuning HAVE to
support LSB/USB for reception?

You can demodulate LSB or USB transmissions by adjusting the main and SSB
"fine tuning" controls on the Degen/Kaito 1102. It takes a steady hand,
but does not drify appreciably once you get the right spot.

Thanks, that may help me with my decision on the DX398/1102
