Ha! I heard that also. I almost threw my totable portable against the
wall.
I fell much better now.
I wouldn't do that. It's getting increasingly impossible to find
portables that don't have some connection to the CCP. Sony is gradually
phasing out SW receiver production. After they do, you'll have a choice
of a portable made by the CCP (Tecsun/Eton/Grundig) or one with an
unknown connection to the CCP (Degen). Even Sangeans are made in
China-and Sangean is a Taiwanese company! That's probably why they don't
say "Made in China" on their radios.
I have enough non-Chinese portables around here to last my lifetime. My
next new radio will be the German made Kneisner and Doering KWZ30-2 or
American made Flex-Radio SDR-1000.
I use a Yaesu Frog series (FRG-8800), made in Japan, for most listening.
I have a Degen in my emergency kit but I don't use it on a regular
basis, it's there just in case.
