I wonder if any body has recently done market research on the numbers of HF and 6M owners worldwide and how $any of those have purchased a brand new Elite class radio in the last 3 years?
If I check my log from recent times I am seeing a large number of IC-7800's but very few FT5x-9000's...has anyone noticed this? I recently had a conversation with Vertex Standard in Australia and they claim less than 15 imported into VK...Icom claim 20 plus 7800's.... If these numbers hold true worldwide, small wonder yaesu have opted to go up against the K3. They have lost a large chunk of their prestige in the portable and Dxpedition market as more and more K3's appear to be the rig of choice...interesting! 73's Gary Sent via BlackBerry® from Telstra ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
