Ran,

As far as the issue of the Degen De1108's Dial Light Duration
goes have a Bright-&-Dim Dial Light Option {Key Function} :
* Bright-On {Hi-Full-Illumination} for 15 Seconds -or-
* Dim-On {Low-1/3-Illumination} for 60 Seconds
When using DC Battery Power.

Note - The Hi-or-Low Dial Lights feature is also nice
for AC Power Operation too.


SO THE QUESTION IS ? ? ?
The 'new' Degen DE1108 - Will It Be A Super Radio ?
Or just another 'portable' radio that missed the mark ?

RHF - man, you are right on...the 1/3 power dial light for 60 sec on
batteries would be fantastic - and keep me from fumbling around in the
dark. Of course, we would still like the option of full power dial
light for 15 sec. Like you, I sure hope the Degen DE1108 is as
suggested (created from consideration of user suggestions) and not just
another portable radio that missed the mark.
