Default Sangean says no more shortwave radios

No, Sangean will not release a new Shortwave radio. The closest thing to it
will be our DRM-40, featuring DRM, Digital Radio Mondale, digital shortwave.
The reason being that we have over the past 5 years seen a 50% reduction in
the shortwave category. People unfortunately are not interested in SW.


Actually, the real reason, just like Tecsun/Eton/Grundid is that they
make **** radios.
