I wonder what the people of Japanese descent living on the West Coast of
North America thought during the Second World War. I don't believe they
were allowed radios in the concentration camps...

I understand that they were usually allowed to keep their radios, but
those with SW capability had the SW disabled (usually by the removal of
a vital component). After the war, some had the SW restored. [I believe
there's previously been some discussion about this in this - and other -
NGs.]
