kaito 1101 manualTo calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzes reviews to verify trustworthiness. See All Buying Options Add to Wish List Disabling it will result in some disabled or missing features. You can still see all customer reviews for the product. The outfit is surprisingly complete, especially for the price; it includes a soft plastic pouch-case, three rechargeable batteries, a plug-in wire which is an external antenna, a set of earbuds, and an external power supply. Performance is good on shortwave and FM. It's OK on AM too, but noticeably better at the high end of the AM band than the low end, at least in my example (It could be this is because the AM antenna is small, in which case it would be true in all examples. Or it might be an alignment problem specific to my set.) Sound quality is as good as you could expect for a two-inch speaker: OK, but you're giving up high fidelity for portability here. Battery life seems good. It is easy to operate for the basic functions, so I rate it as easy to use overall. However, if you want to charge the batteries while in the radio, or get the radio to come on and stay on instead of turning off after a preset time (default is 99 minutes), you'll have to fumble around to find the function or (gasp!) refer to the manual. Like most radios with digital readouts, this puppy has memory presets. I don't usually bother with memory presets, since I find them more trouble than just using manual tuning to get where I want to go. The KA1101 is the only digital radio I have where I actually use the memories and even change them at whim, without having to refer to the manual. That says a lot for its simplicity. This is very good coverage in a portable, especially one this small. Misses: The fold-out elevating stand on the back of the set seems flimsy.http://www.winnerjudo.pl/zdjecia/fck/klx-135a-install-manual.xml

The telescoping antenna is hinged in such a way that if you lay the radio flat on its back, or even elevate it with the fold-out stand, the antenna cannot be arranged to point straight up. This (in my opinion) increases the chance of snagging the thing and breaking it. You can use the supplied plug-in wire antenna instead to avoid this danger, but it's a bit inconvenient. Charging the batteries in the radio can take up to nine hours. If there is a way to charge them while you're playing the radio, I haven't found it. The radio comes on in timer mode. If you want it to continue playing and not shut off after a preset time, you have to hit the erase button within about five seconds of turning the radio on. The radio lacks SSB (Single Sideband). This means you can't use it to listen to utility communication or amateur radio signals, most of which use SSB (when they operate on shortwave at all. Note that most of the common utility communications these days operate on VHF, well outside the range of any shortwave receiver). For a little bit more, you could get a portable receiver that would pick up SSB. It probably would be bigger, costlier, and more complex to operate; but if you want utility signals you definitely want SSB. Also, there is a distinct issue with the keypad as I have to press down really hard for most keys to register that number on the display. Reception patterns for SW vary according to the amount of solar influence which affects the Ionosphere and the time of day etc, etc, etc. With a good Tecsun, you have the option of several BW selections which allow you to minimize existing interference, now DSP doesn't eliminate all interference, but it does eliminate a lot of interference that makes hearing a clear signal possible on some if not, (most) PLL-only radios regardless of circuitry assembly date (age).

Revelle 5.0 out of 5 stars I am extremely impressed right out of the box how well it performs even for quite weak signals and with the antenna on sw not even extended. Also, when rechargeable AA's are used, the full battery charge will not register on the screen (only 3 of 4 of the battery indicator icons are visible under these conditions).Please try again later. Please try again later. Benjamin 805 4.0 out of 5 stars For receiving distant FM signals and clear AM reception this radio is excellent. Shortwave is also good but as this is a simple radio there are ones out there that can do this better. I would have given it 5 stars had it not been for a quality control issue. When the radio arrived I took the radio out of the box and I found that the screw that tightens the antenna into place had fallen out and was in the box.https://formations.fondationmironroyer.com/en/node/12723 When I took a closer look at the rest of the radio I found that 2 of the other screws that hold the radio together were also loose. For the QC Pass sticker to be on the unit this makes no sense to me at all. As this radio has been discontinued I am just happy that my issue was fixable with a screw driver and hope I am good for another 5 years. Update September 2011 Since my original review I have had no issues and the radio has performed excellently. I'm just glad that my issues were fixed by tightening a few screws as this radio is amazing. Update December 2011 Just got back from a trip where I took Greyhound from CA to FL, Then I went from FL to WI, and finally from WI back to CA. This is my second trip cross country and the radio performed excellently. In several places my Kaito was the only radio able to pick up anything. Update March 2013 The radio has been on 3 more cross country trips and is still working like a champ.Please try again later. Please try again later. WBS 4.0 out of 5 stars I also have the GE Superradio III, touted for it's abilities in areas where signals are marginal. That radio does well but is hardly portable, more luggable. I was surprised to find that the petite KA1101 out-performs the much, much larger and heavier (and almost three times as expensive) Superradio. As others have noted, instruction booklet is amusingly creative in its use of the English language. But, a little trial-and-error and one learns how to make the most of the many capabilities built into this small package. Better instructions would not mitigate the fact that this is a complicated radio to operate. Not for those who prefer to depend upon their children when it comes to recording TV shows on their DVR or VHS recorder. Also, cannot operate the radio for the 5 hours it takes for a full recharge. Mildly annoying: cannot set mode of time display. 24-hour display (e.g., 1:00 p.m. is 1300) is the only choice for time of day and alarm time.http://lamda-maritime.com/images/99-kia-sportage-repair-manual.pdf If you want to be in control of when it turns off, have to remember to take it out of sleep mode after turning it on. This radio does exactly what I wanted: excellent reception in a small package I can toss in the carry-on as I travel. And, I enjoy the challenge of figuring out how to get more complicated gadgets to dance. Your mileage may vary.Please try again later. Please try again later. RBW Top Contributor: Camping 4.0 out of 5 stars I wish I COULD understand some of what it tries to explain. The eaze of programming and recalling favorite stations. The sensor light (although it could be a tad less sensitive). The reception; best on FM of any radio I've seen this small.with very few images from local blow-torches. I believe it surpasses many of the Sangean portables. Confession; I didn't buy this radio for shortwave, and have no comment. The extension antenna, which can improve FM pickup even more.That would be helpful. But the narrow button helps in that regard. I'm not sure yet about battery consumption. I guess I like alot more than I dislike. Hense the 4 stars!!Please try again later. Please try again later. Douglas C. Rennie 5.0 out of 5 stars Based on what I read, the KA1101 delivered the best performance for the buck, and it offered excellent reception in all bands, including world band. After a month of use, I can say that the KA1101 is a superb little package, one that lived up to, or exceeded, every expectation. FM reception is outstanding, ditto AM reception. Every station, even the hard to get local all-classical station, come in clear and clean and crisp. As for sound, well it's not Bose, but for such a tiny speaker it's really pretty impressive, and the stereo sound through the earpieces that come with the radio is not bad at all. It's kinda fun, though from what I understand, we on the west coast are at the bottom of the food chain when it comes to shortwave reception. Outside the 49 meter band, the pickings have been slim, but I do latch onto something worth a few minutes of listening time now and then. Keep in mind, I have no expertise here and am just flipping around to see what I come up with. I'm sure that SW reception would improve, perhaps significantly, with an external antenna, but I'm not quite there yet. In the interim, shortwaving in the evening using just the built-in has so far been an enjoyable little adventure. And I can carry the radio around with me in the morning and evening, then put it down wherever I end up by using the flip-down stand on the backside. What else? The build quality is quite good, the whole package having a well-made, solid feel to it. Plenty of presets with 10 per band (and totally easy to use), easy direct access, Wide and Narrow band switch to use for difficult to tune-in stations. Everything about operating this radio is intuitive and quickly mastered. Last week, I bought a pair of Sennheiser 202 headphones and have to say that using these is a HUGE improvement in stereo sound quality, almost a concert hall sound when listening to classical music. Vastly superior to the ear buds that come with the radio.Please try again later. Please try again later. John S 5.0 out of 5 stars The consensus of user reviews articulated favorable ratings of this unit, even as superior to its siblings---the more expensive KA1102 and KA1103 (when comparing capabilities note that the KA1101 does not cover SSB while its stablemates do). The carton contained the receiver, AC adaptor, three rechargeable nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) AA batteries, stereo earbuds, a 15-foot external wire antenna, protective soft case and instructions in English. My first impression was consistent with other reviewers who found the dark-gray receiver to be very compact and solidly built with a satisfying heft. The battery compartment door is attached to the case so it won't fall off and get lost. I live in an area where radio reception is quirky. The Kaito earbuds were adequate but a pair of Bose TriPort IEs gave full and pure sound without hums, creaks, squeaks or whistles that are symptomatic of less-well-designed receiver and power supply circuitry. The battery charging system appeared to function as designed and is switched on by a couple of button pushes. One potentially disastrous error for a strict literalist is the user's manual's directive to plug the 120 VAC power converter into a 220VAC outlet. There has been criticism that the battery meter does not show a full charge when rechargeable batteries are installed. This makes sense as the NiMH AA cells are rated at 1.2VDC, not 1.5VDC as in disposable cells; on a scale where 4.5VDC is analogous to 100, the voltmeter reflects the total available voltage, 3.6VDC with fully-charged NiMH rechargeables vs. 4.5VDC with disposables. To me, the bottom line of a radio is its ability to receive broadcast signals and provide quality audio output. Ergonomics and programming functions are relative to individual preference and experience. I found the KA1101 uncluttered and simple to operate. The clock is 24-hour only but as I set mine on GMT that is not a liability. The wrist strap that some find annoying can easily be removed with a snip of some scissors. The black vinyl carrying case is simply that: a simple cover solely to protect the radio from damage during transport or storage, not designed for use while the unit is playing. I was looking for a compact, multi-band unit and the KA1101 is terrific in this regard. For someone seeking an outstanding receiver in this category I'd definitely recommend it.Please try again later. Please try again later. Larry T. Ware 5.0 out of 5 stars I spent the whole evening checking out the radio. I am impressed beyond description. First let me say that I've had a hobby of DXing (distance listening) to AM since the early 1970's. I've had very sensitive receivers including a 17 tube 1959 Sherwood tuner with narrow selectivity on AM with superior reception capabilities. I live in Peoria, IL where certain AM frequencies are very difficult to receive such as WABC 770 AM, WCBS 880 AM, and WNBC 660 AM due to the of adjacent positions of Chicago station locations (at 780, 890, and 670). The above mentioned radios received the New York stations with some difficulty and cross bleeding from the Chicago stations. The Kaito 1101 picked these up last night with little difficulty and no cross over bleeding (as long as the New York signals were coming in of course). I was amazed at the sensitivity all across the AM band. There was hardly a frequency across the dial where there wasn't a station coming in. The Kaito 1101 is positively the best portable radio I've ever listened to for AM reception. The short wave band was very saturated with stations, especially on the 31 meter band after 8:30 PM (CST). I was receiving radio China and Taiwan as if they were local stations. The 49 meter band was very active early on in the evening. I used only the whip antenna for testing and found this to work very satisfactory. The use of the external antenna (included) increases reception. I'm sure an added outside antenna would really make this radio perform on short wave. I found the Kaito KA1101 to have more stations available than my old Zenith 3000 Transoceanic. FM is also very sensitive as described by others. I am able to receive FM stations at work where the metal framing of the building I'm in blocks signals on other radios. I was amazed that the lower FM band (below 88 MHZ) had over 6 stations on it. I read through the owners manual (which takes a little interpretation due to some poor English translation) and tested out the other listed features like the clock alarms and presets and found it all to work very well. The radio shows excellent engineering and quality. It has very clear sound. It works as described and is very easy to use. I am very pleased at this selection and would recommend this to anyone. I can't understand why anyone would be displeased with this radio.Please try again later. Please try again later. StinkyGomez 4.0 out of 5 stars I needed something that could pick up signals through several thick interior walls, and still take to the beach and on ski trips. When I got the radio, I was surprised at how small it is (about the size of 2 cassette tapes or decks of cards), but was pleased by the heft. Directions were a bit confusing at first, but not the worst I've seen. SW reception is better than the Eton, but I haven't used that feature much. Signal doesn't seem to drift. All in all, this is a very good, very portable radio.Please try again later. Please try again later. This radio comes with 3 Ni-MH rechargeable batteries and the AC adaptor (and charges the batteries automatically while in the radio). AM coverage is from 520-1710 kHz (9 or 10 KHz steps) and shortwave coverage is 3000 to 26100 kHz in two bands. (The FM-L band covers 70.0 - 95.5 MHz for the Japanese FM band and Russian FM band, if traveling in these areas).The built in digital clock has two alarms, sleep function and can be set to wake you to beeper or the radio. Other features include: two position tone, lock, wide-narrow selectivity, Local-DX switch and backlit LCD. There is even a light sensor that determines when the LCD needs to be illuminated (when buttons are pushed). There is a line out jack for use in recording off-the-air or feeding an external audio amplifier plus there is is an external antenna jack. A special battery icon shows remaining battery life in four steps. The SIL version has a silver colored case.One year limited mfg. warranty. The PLL design drives a highly The FM reception is excellent The selectivity Thanks to the dual conversion technology, The included AC adaptor allows The small size and great performance, make it an excellent prepper radio for your bug out bag.If you experience any. Review Summary For: Kaito KA1103 Reviews: 59 MSRP: 109.99 Description: This high quality world receiver is made in the best radio factory in Asia and it receives all the stations in shortwave spectrums, plus side bands, SSB. The special designed circuit is a high sensitivity one, but no noise.Like many on this site and elsewhere, I think that the original version of it is a really good radio on SW, even with its weird ergonomics. I have also found its performance on AM really sensitive, the other night I was able to briefly receive WINS 1010 New York on its ferrite aerial around 5 am UTC. I live approximately 3250miles from NY. Something has gone badly wrong with the design of the DSP version. It also has a really annoying version of soft mute that takes time to lock onto the station you have tuned into. Normally, I don't mind soft mute but this is a real pain. It's like a really slow synchronous detector. On the positive side and there are some; AM reception is really sensitive but suffers from the aforementioned soft mute, which tends to lose station lock when you move the radio and the signal strength changes on the internal ferrite rod aerial. In the evening, I'm enjoying passable reception of the Faroes on 531khz. LW is pretty good too. However, it also suffers from AM images FM is good and so is the audio. I am noticing that they are starting to command higher pricing on auction sites. As for the DSP version, forget it. If you can't get an original one, consider the XHDATA D-808, my go-to portable for dxing. 73s This has some advantages but also some disadvantages. Performance has been reported to be a step backwards from the original 1103 design. So new buyers should check out the reviews of the newer models. The first one lasted at leat 6 years before I got it wet in salt water. I recently ordered a PL series radio that had ssb on it. What a dud, I could never hear amateur radio SSB stations on it due to very weak BFO injection. The attenuator made the receiver deaf in all but the max rcv sensitivity position where the rcvr overloaded most of the time. The KA1103 on the other hand, can hear signals below 1 microvolt, far, far better than spec. It is sensitive, stable and easy to operate once one gets the hang of its user interface, I may buy a few more of these before they wise up and start building junk stuff.LOL KQ4FM ex W4GZV My antenna hardware fell apart after a few months. 10 meter band is very unstable. Also failure of a LO.No real support from Kaito, I've asked for support and have been blown off. I own a 660 and it's pretty good. It is very sensitive, reasonably selective and covers all frequencies from 150 KHz up to 30 MHz in AM, CW and SSB, as well as 76 to 108 MHz FM. Audio quality is quite good for such a little receiver, and using headphones improves on that. It can also hold rechargeable batteries and one can recharge those batteries through the radio using the supplied wall wart adapter. I have found that the supplied rechargeable batteries are rather anemic at only 1300 mAh, so I replaced them with Eveready 2500 mAh rechargeables. Eneloops from Sanyo or Panasonic also work great in this radio. Battery life is not the greatest on this radio; I find I can get maybe 4 or 5 hours of use out of the 2500 mAh batteries. But hey, the radio is only 80 bucks. SSB reception is very good on this rig. There is a fine tune control that is essential to SSB and CW reception. It works well. This radio blows away my little Grundig Mini 100PE in performance. It is far more sensitive, easier to tune, and more selective, although of course the KA1103 doesn't fit into a pocket. An alternative in the same price class is the Tecsun PL-600, but I have no experience with it so can't compare the KA1103 against it. All in all, I highly recommend the KA1103, and it is still available on Amazon.com as of this writing. Both have malfunctioned. The first one worked well for about 2 years. All of a sudden, it just ceased to receive any station- FM, MW, LW and SW just went dead. No reception at all. Just static. I returned it and received a new one from the place I got it. This one worked well for a couple of months. Then, I noticed it suddenly changed frequencies all by itself. They are superior in their sensitivity, though you need to use both hands to do most of the more frequent things like recalling a memory. The radio is too lightweight and it ends up skidding on the tabletop. There is no volume control. You have to push a button and then turn the frequency knob. Too many superfluous bells and whistles. So my review spends a few moments on things making the KA1103 special, compared to other SSB world band portables made by Sangean and Tecsun. - Excellent selectivity. The narrow filter is tighter than you'd expect on a radio of this class. Not just for SSB but also in AM mode on the medium wave band. - With a simple keyboard trick you can tune down to 0 kHz (VLF) and use the external antenna jack for MW and longwave. - The attenuator is just right, it doesn't totally kill the desired signal. By comparison attenuators on the Tecsun PL-600, PL-660 and Sangean ATS-505 which are far too strong. - The radio is metal and has a good chunky feel to it. - Has a line out jack, which I use as an RF ground connection. That's a must when tuning down to VLF on this radio. But a ground isn't necessary on shortwave and medium wave. - It comes with a generous 35 foot wire antenna that can be connected into the external antenna jack. I actually get better results though (less noise) wrapping 4 turns around the base of the telescoping whip. As opposed to direct connection into the jack. It couples amazingly well. I think I'm one of the few people who appreciates the faux analog display. It adds to the atmosphere. Compare with a bare bones display that's like looking at a cheap digital watch. No, the KA1103's ergonomics aren't ideal and that's well detailed by other reviewers here. Unfortunately the only thing you can do is get used to it. If you read this review attempting to decide between this and something like the Tecsun PL-600, well it's a tough call. The Tecsuns are exceptionally sensitive on their whip antenna on shortwave, as this is. You can consider the special things above and decide from there.No problems. Left it out in the heavy due. Dried it out and works fair. Buttons along the bottom kinda iffy and fussy. Face plate let loose and my attempts to reglue not good. So i ordered another. Ive carried that thing all over the country. Took it to Cancoon too. Love the SSB feature. Yea not like my Icom 7600 but its just fun and handy. If i hadnt left it out on the camping trip it would prob still be playing. Great radio. Ill be more careful this time. SSB is a little difficult to tune compared to other receivers like the Sony SW7600GR or Tecsun PL-660, but not impossible. I've noticed some problems with images just using the telescoping whip. The faux analog display is fun but doesn't cover all the frequencies the radio does, so the tuning indicator line is missing at times. The backlighting could be brighter and the ergonomics can be quite bizarre, such as having to press the VOL button to be able to change the volume using the tuning knob. I see it as a novelty item that performs reasonably well, though there are much better receivers available for not much more money. Nothing tricky about it at all. I'll probably do another review in the coming months.

I mentally tatted 3 of them, I tested only one. The rest is up to you to adjust. I worked with organza 0,5 mm wideribbon and 20 Penny polyester thread. Why organza? because it has a fine texture. Just make same size ring same size. The PL-660 has a full compliment of features and is quite easy to operate. Sensitivity and selectivity are both excellent. Here are a few of its specs: The G3 has a smooth tuning wheel and direct keypad entry for finding frequencies. The G3 is very simple to operate compared to many similar receivers. This radio is very portable and has a rubberized body. Its ability to tune in FM stations is likewise quite impressive--and with built-in RDS, you'll have FM station and song information display and scroll on the G3's digital display. The only true negative about this radio is that it has weak sync detector lock. Still, without using the sync function, this is a very capable receiver-- read our full review of the Grundig G3 for more details ). Here are a few of its specs: There are still some on the market that are NIB (new in box), but I encourage you to purchase one from a retailer that will physically test the radio before shipping. Universal Radio will do this complimentary for their customers. It gets consistently good reviews from users and guides. One of its outstanding features is its synchronous selectable sideband, a feature which helps to reduce fading distortion and adjacent-channel interference. This feature alone gives the Sony ICF-SW7600GR the ability to hold its own with radios in a higher price bracket. Another plus is that the Sony will allow you to select between upper and lower sidebands. This makes tuning in ham radio, utility and other SSB signals a breeze. The only thing lacking on this wonderful portable is a tuning knob, something I personally prefer for browsing shortwave bands. Here are a few of its specs: Truly exceptional audio fidelity.
