There is plenty of coax marked LMR400 that is produced in China and not by
Times Microwave.  Judging by the amount of counterfeit electronic devices
around,  I would nit in the least be surprised if there's stuff around
printed "Times Microwave" that is made in China, but with no relationship
to the company whose name is on it.
