China is such a large horse and it is red!  Its government claims to be 
communist but it is one good capitalist dictatorship.
The Chinese made Ten Tec would be a better value if it had three bands.  By 
the time you buy two of them you have spend $500.  The Japanese made Yaesu 
FT-817ns is a better deal.  It has all the HF bands as well as FM/SSB/CW on 
the most popular VHF/UHF frequencies.
