The story goes that ROBERTS RADIOS UK contracted out to Sangean some years ago whatever the true story Robbert now are made under both names but are coming out of the Sangean factory so once again a British brand name has gone down, thing is can you tell the difference!. Mike MBR.

Subject: [ultralightdx] Grundig been and gone.
Hi Guys. I think we all like to do a bit of reminiscing don't we I know I do and
like you I bet you think of the great days of MADE IN GERMANY radios such as
Grundig - Nordmende but those times have gone, it was the Japanese that took
over with there 7600 range, now it's the chinese with there DE or PL and good
luck to them I say, for one thing, they seem to listen, so if your not happy
with lets say with you Degen 1102 or your PL- 3xx then the next model will have
that missing feature same for Tecsum and Kaito, as for Grundig think MADE IN
!!!!!! and by who!, as a point I asked all of them in a e-mail when a full size
table model might be hitting the market, the reply was, not a might but soon, so
keep your eyes open, I asked shoe box size and there said "Why Not". Mike MBR
