what would be a good SW antenna for the Kaito 1102 over the wire antenna that comes supplied with it ?

Anyway a small active loop is a good choice, since it can be used to help negate some of the noise issues you will experience with the plain wire antenna. That is, if there's a simple way to connect it to the 1102 (I think it does have an external antenna jack). You don't want to put anything real big on a small portable as it will likely overload it 73 Mike

where can I get one of these antennas at and yeah it does have a external antenna hookup
Get some wire and an alligator clip, and clip the wire to the antenna, or find one of the commercially made reel-up units . Anything else will probably overload it. If you want active, find one of the Radio Shack/Realistic 20-280 amplified SW antennas. They don't work as well as the Sony active antennas, but for the price, they aren't bad.
