Excellent source for Kaito KA1102 (American version of China's Degen 1102)
I've been really surprised how long it has taken for someone to come up with
a non-Ebay (and non PayPal BS) source for a true American version of the portable radio that has been stirring up such a buzz around here -- the Degen 1102. Well, this morning I was surfing around the new RadioLabs site (checking for when they're going to mod other radios -- I still want a synch detector for my CC Radio Plus), and found that they're temporarily selling the Kaito KA1102 for $79.95 plus shipping (UPS). Plus, this American version comes with a blue backlight and rechargable Ni-MH batteries and a true 110V AC adapter/charger that automatically charges the batteries when plugged in. That's right -- no more 220 to 110v converter. Anyway, here's the link: http://www.radiolabs.com/products/ra...02-special.php I've ordered mine, and will let you know what I think of it. I don't expect it to be in the same league as my "Super ATS-909," but I won't get nearly as upset if it gets lost or stolen -- I'll take this little radio everywhere. From what I see, they're ending the sale on March 18th. Anyway, just wanted to give you guys a "heads-up" on this in case you were like me and didn't really want to deal with the Chinese version and wanted to deal with an actual dealer (long-timers will tell you that's the way to go -- just in case it has a problem). -- Stinger |
