Hi Guys,
Am new here, but after searching around on the net I read a lot of positive reviews about this particular site; particularly in regard to beginners to shortwave radio having their queries answered by guys with a lot of expertise in the subject matter. Well anyway, now that introductions are out of the way, I just have a question regarding the Kaito brand of radios. I have spoken to several people who HAVE had first hand experience with these, and I have heard nothing but glowing reports in terms of their build quality, design, auto scan and preset features, plus the fact that the particular model I AM looking at purchasing also has the advantage of dual conversion receiver technology. Now the model I have fallen for, the KA1103, is currently available for a price of less than $90 US! From what I have been told, a Kaito model for this type of price IS a steal, and I have been advised that for a beginner such as myself, the price represents tremendous value and getting used to the Kaito won't be as steep a learning curve as some other, more feature-rich models (such as the type most of you guys would have). What I DO need to know, however, before I make the purchase, is am I able to try 'AM DXing' and listen to medium wave stations' with a model such as the one I have my heart set on? Sorry guys for the long post, but it's just that I have so many questions and am trying to learn as much as I can as fast as I can so that I am able to really get stuck into things and get on the airwaves asap heh. Thanks so much in advance for your advice and guidance, Brian Anasta |
