Who makes this radio, and is it a good radio for the price?

Ebay has had a lot of listings for this radio under "Sharper Image."
It is listed in the $40.00 range which makes C$100 a bit stiff. One
post on rec.radio couldn't get it to tune above 21 mhz but that is all
I have heard. It is an interesting radio and I was thinking of getting
one but the "the source"s" stock for the model was not the neat one of
the illustration, but was a garish thing that looked like some sort of
Oriental bug with lots of bling. Even if it was a good radio, I
wouldn't have a thing like that in the house. The earlier model,
however, had a clean design.
