Ramapriya,

You wrote "I have Japanese business friends
who keep flying in from there all the time"

Think creatively USA to Japan & Japan to You ;-}

Question - Do your Japanese business friends go
to Hong Kong and/or China on Business Trips ?



Yep. They all work for one of Japan's best-known architectural design
houses and currently have a few projects in China, so I could misuse
the friendship

But then the Satellit may well be available in Tokyo too, let me ask.

And thanks a bunch for the great tips. Seeing how much my son vies for
everything of mine, I think I'll buy the household a Satellit to keep
me company while I travel (quite a bit) and a ICF-SW7600GR for home

Out of the US, Sat 800 would likely be found under it's native badge:
Tecsun Ham 2000.

Outside the US, Sat 800 under the Grundig badge is rarely found and
almost never at retail. If you can find someone with a Sat 800 here, you
might make a grey market import to your location. But you'll not find it
new, in shops there.
