Oh sure, big time.  But not under that name, and I forget what name is used. 
One of their biggest scanner problems is Europe's new EMI emission standards 
for consumer electronic equipment.  Their standards make the FCC's look like 
sandbox rules.  So most of Tandy's scanners are having a tough time meeting 
the new emissions rules over there.
