Has anyone removed the colorful Chinese sticker from the front of the radio?
Does it leave a sticky mess behind? Does it even come off?

I have no experience with said Chinese sticker, but for the sticky messes left
behind, try a product called "Goo Gone". It has never damaged any surface I've
used it one. I've even used it on the shiny covers of paperback books to get
price tag sticker goo off.

I removed it by taking the shiny backing paper from another sticker,
wedging it underneath the edge of the Degen sticker, and continuing to push
it inwards until it eased enough of the sticker off the surface to peel
away without damage. I then used the backing paper as a keeper for it,
should I ever wish to re-attach it (e.g. should I sell it in the future).

Take a cotton rag and put some rubbing alcohol on it, then use it to
take off the excess glue from the radio.

Thanks for the replies. It came right off. No muss, no fuss!

Actually, getting the sticker off isn't the tough part. It's writing
Made in the USA on the back with a small brush that's difficult to do.

I guess one could always put a sticker on the back that says:

"Chinese Sticker Removed in The USA"

Maybe we can get some Chinese company to mass-market "Made in the USA"
stickers. I'm sure they would be a lot less expensive than having those
stickers made here.

N8KDV,

Actually, on the 'back' of this Sticker are Printed the Words:

" Do Not Remove Under Penalty of Law "

But, thats OK because it is 'written' in Chinese :o)
