In my world I have some trouble understanding why people buy a Lexus when a Mazda or Toyota will get one around quite nicely for much less, but that is the free market. What is disconcerting about building this type of equipment is that if something happens to the owner most of the stuff is going to the landfill. At least most ham equipment was transferred or sold to other hams that kept it in the circle, but when you cross over into consumer goods, that is gone and with it a lot of parts. I notice the $85,000 price tag is from Christmas Eve in 2000. Wonder why they haven't raised their prices. Can you imagine an set of transformers for an amp at $28,400? Boy what I could do with that kind of money and have left over. 73 Jim/W5JO ----- Original Message ----- > Here you go, Jim.
