IBS has recently added a review of the DE105 to their web page updating the receiver section of the printed Passport book: http://www.passband.com/pages/receivernews.htm There is a hint of a new high-performance pocket radio on the horizon: could it be the resurrected Sangean ATS-636? |

( from http://www.passband.com/pages/receivernews.htm ) Degen’s new DE105, a decent little radio, is sold in North America as the Kaito KA105 with a robust front panel. Yet, its limited frequency coverage and other shortcomings make it a dubious choice when another $20 can buy the vastly superior, if slightly beefier, Degen DE1101/Kaito KA1101. If you simply must go with a pocket-sized model, be patient. Rumor has it that there is a serious model in the works to fill the current price chasm between the $55 for a ‘105 and the $360 for a Sony ICF-SW100S. - Probably ( one would hope The Sangean ATS-636 ..) [ [Translation below from http://www.thiecom.de/ats636.htm via altavista babelfish ]] " ATS636 world receiver (Preview!) with PLL, SSB, RDS - new ones for 2003... no current picture available! Preis/Price? Pdf service side pressures Description: The Sangean ATS-636 is a "small ATS909". From the size a ATS606A, of the functions (nearly) a ATS-909! The equipment is planned for 2003. (after our knowledge this is that world-wide first picture of the ATS636!) (No picture yet...) Subject to change. "" - So let's see..( I'll probably get one if the $$ is there.. ) Dan |
