Degen De1105 Views
As to shortwave scanning sensitivity, I compared the DE1105 (rated 2.5 stars in 2008 Passport
I ran a 90 foot 22 awg longwire antenna straight into the DE1102 and delighted that the DE1102 had enough dynamic range to not distort. I was impressed with the DE1102 vs. my Eton E1 off this light-guage longwire. The DE1105 with a whip-clip off the same 90a′ longwire distorted and really couldns’t handle that signal strength, although the DE1105 works great with a whip-clip from a Degen TG-34 indoor medium/shortwave active loop antenna.
For the price, the DE1105 is a very decent receiver. The feature set is innovative, albeit a few quirks and issues as described earlier. As a pocket-sized receiver, there are limitations to what features Degen could cram in, and they have done quite well. Being low-medium end consumer world-band receiver, the DE1105 is aimed at those starting out with SWLing, or those who spends more time on MW and FM with the occassional need for SW.
