The Taiwanese company Sangean was not very well known in the shortwave
listeners market, before they started prodicing several cheap analog multiband
shortwave travel sets.
In Europe, many listeners heard from Sangean the first time, after Siemens
had made the decision to leave the consumer electronics / shortwave travel
radio market - the same well known receivers suddenly re-appeared under the name
of Sangean. And quite often, they did reappear with a much better price...
The Sangean ATS-803 was one of the very popular successors of Sony's first
microprocessor controlled shortwave portable, the ICF-2001. The Sangean set
featured quite similar dimensions, the same chain of LEDs as signal strength meter,
the clock and timer functions, but the improved A-version did even beat the
Sony as far as selectivity and battery consumption are concerned.
Amongst several double conversion sets, the Sangean ATS-818CS with it's
integrated cassette recorder and finally the ATS-909 with it's superior sensitivity
and selectivity, many alphanumeric memories and RDS (Radio Data System) decoding
capabilities in the FM band were very successful.
