Was surfing Kaito's website and started looking at Tecsun radios which they also market. Down the page you'll find the Tecsun PL360 which is the County Comm GP5DSP. If you check the reviews for this radio on EHam reviews for the Tecsun PL360 there are a few very good reviews which give it a 5/5 rating.

I've started using the GP5 a bit more (wear a headset for FM stereo) and found I really like this radio. For traveling the ETM function will quickly scan through all the stations so that when you "tune" the radio it simply jumps from one station to the next rather than checking out the noise between stations. For AM the 2.5" ferrite antenna that plugs into the top of the radio can be turned in any direction to bring in weaker AM stations.

The radio uses the Silicon Labs si4734 digital signal processing chip which is why there is so much functionality in such a small package. More about the chip HERE, but suffice to say that it is the radio -- minus the antennas, control buttons, batteries, speaker...
