Yep point taken but be aware that you can get better travelling radios.
The 1103 is indeed a budget priced radio and the sound is okay but not
good.
Then it does have some overloading issues to consider.
Some of what the 1103 offers - including setting presets is very
difficult for a totally blind person though not impossible.
All in all it goes back to what I said a couple of weeks ago, evaluate
a radio on exactly what you want from it.
The 1103 does perform well over bands but its a cheap radio and I
myself - if I were travelling - would much prefer the Eton Satellite
even though its more expensive, its a better performing radio, easily
accessible etc.

When I go out of town, I don't want to take the 2010 with me. I want
something smaller when traveling.

The price is fairly typical yes but I have a question, you have a
Sony 2010 do you not so why do you want to downgrade to a Degen
1103? That’s pretty much what your doing.
The Degen is a much smaller size and - whilst there’s no argument
whatever that as a budget radio it performs very well - the 2010 is
better.
The difference between the two versions isn’t very much as far as I
know, the version 2 has the addition of up/down buttons.

I have been considering the purchase of the Degen 1103. But when I
went to search for it, I found that there is a version 2 release.
About the best price I noted was $55.00 U.S. with $24 for shipping
from Hong Kong.
I therefore have two questions. First, is this price fairly
typical? Second, how does the new version differ from the former,
pros and cons if known?
Thanks.
