This is kind of silly. Heath wasn't even thinking "amateur radio" products 
until they got wind of potential demand from hams. Even at that, they're 
thinking "accessories" -- probably updated versions of tuner, wattmeter, etc.  
Small stuff. 

If they can start with something to get their feet wet that sells, and find a 
market to build on that, and make enough money to support a business  -- more 
power to them. I'd buy something from them just to get another "Heathkit" logo 
box delivered to my door :-)
