I would be hard pressed to come up with a reason to buy Sangean at prices like that, when I just got a DE1102 for $68.50 delivered. Without having seen a review I will venture a guess that the PT-80 is a good radio, based on the description and my experiences with the Radio Shack labeled versions I own. But I can't see me ever paying that kind of money again for something I can obtain that is comparable and less than half the price. Just my 2 cents. |

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. Tom Welch |

I agree..
Why is this radio better than the DE1102; and at over twice the price ?? http://universal-radio.com/catalog/portable/1080.html - What makes it better from a performance / Useability or design standpoint..

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? |

The tecsun radios i have are great but they still aren't as good as my
5 year old sangean ATS-909. It's actually a radio shack dx 398. The tuning knob when you're on LSB or USB sometimes skips way ahead or tunes backwards which is a major pain in the butt. I just use the arrow keys and fine tune the USB by trial and error. The speaker too is a little hard sometimes to hear speech. I need to run it into an external speaker.

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. |

I might get the Sangean PT-80. It offers two of my favorite features: a
tuning knob and one-touch memories. I already own a Sangean 909, which I am very happy with, and this may be a nice companion. I'll wait and see about its sensitivity. If it equals the 909, then I'll order one for sure. |
