Where is the E100 being made? In the US or China?

It's the same radio as the Chinese Tecsun PL-200. Which is much much cheaper on eBay.
I have one, I love it.

Caveat: The Eton version may or may not charge NiMH batteries
in the radio. The Tecsun does so, with a step up transformer. It uses 220v, the Eton
for North America will be built for the proper voltage here. And the Eton looks
better with a revamped case. Let's not forget the Eton will come with a US warranty,
whereas the Tecsun would require the hassle of shipping back to China if it needed
replacement.
My personal preference, due to the price difference and excellent service I've had
from Liypn, would be a purchase of the Tecsun. I've bought 3 radios from him with
no problems.
The pretty case and proper North American voltage are not worth the extra cost...
to me.... others will want the security of the warranty and be willing to spend the money.

scroll for the PL-200. $62 shipped... 7-10 day delivery I got a red one.
