Compare this receiver with the sword 1103, in the same price range is something like the Sangean. As DXers (Empfangsenthusiast) me a particularly good reception of distant stations is important. The Sangean gets on all FM local stations and many a more distant transmitter into only he is not to include adjacent, weaker signals, thanks to its wide filter by strong incident local stations in the area. Local stations are +/- 2 MHz of the frequency still listening to me almost in stereo, which is not the sense of a world receiver in this price range. Where do I even Luxembourg and Belgium receive here with his sword in 1103 in Bonn on the turf is to do anything when Sangean despite completely free frequencies.
For LW, MW and SW, he does his job well, however, and also brings in good DX signals. Here he can shake hands with the sword, and is sometimes even more.
My Conclusion: Unusable for normal FM users a nice kitchen or camping Radio, but for FM DXers. LW, MW and SW for DXers absolutely fine.
