If I was going to spend about $400.00 to about $500.00 for an American
made table model Shortwave Radio,what would be the best choice for me? I
am not interested in Chinese made radios at all.

I don't believe there ARE any US made SW radios.. or for that matter, any
radios. Even Drake is made overseas, IIRC..




I think Ten-tec and Palstar are made in the USA too.

There's also Patcom - but I've yet to see a review on their rigs, and
they're out of this price range.

I never heard of Patcom shortwave radios before.I knew Drake,Ten-Tec and
Palstar radios are made in America.I will start checking Universal-Radio
and eBay.Of course,if I had my druthers,I druther have a Watkins-Johnson
shortwave radio (I don't think they are being made anymore) but I know
they are way out of my price range.Thanks for the information,folks.
