Wrong, Made in the Slovak Republic ... not the former USSR by a long
distance.  microHAM have been doing interfaces for nearly 10 years
and even the first interfaces made are still supported by the current
control software and drivers.

If you have any doubts wait a week or so and see what the February
QST (WB8IMY) has to say about the microHAM DigiKeyer II.  DigiKeyer
II is more capable and less costly than Navigator by US Interface.
