These new series of DSP radios are interesting from another point of view, at least from those of us lamenting the move away from US production of high-end receivers (e.g. Drake): the Silicon Labs chips - the heart of these radios - are designed and prototyped in Austin, TX. The production wafe

Well, we have to wait and see. I've sent an email to Eton asking whether the G8 includes the Silicon Labs DSP chip used in the PL-300WT. As for other examples mentioned below, I doubt if the M400 is the Degen DE1123 without the MP3 player - more likely the M400 is just a faceflifted version of

I am very curious to know whether the Eton Grundig branded G8 is the same as the Tecsun PL-300WT or not. If you look closely at photos of the two radios, you will notice that some of the labels/buttons are different, and of course the quoted weight/dimensions are different too. However I find
