Thanks in advance.

Well, it's a decent radio for reception. It's about the same size as a
Sony ICF-SW7600GR, but lacks and SSB support or Synchronous lock at all.
Mine had a bum tuning knob, that every 10 steps would go back one the other
direction. There is also no double conversion, and thus it suffers from
images, although you can select from a 450 or 455 intermediate frequency.
The radio is the same as the Grundig/Eton E10, by the way, but with chinese
writing, so if you want you can read that manual off the website
www.grundigradio.com.

FWIW double donversion is no guaranty against images. The DE1103 and
it's relatvies are a prime example.
