Those companies have been sold but they are still in business under new owners.
In fact more antenna companies have been starting in recent years like M2,

Hustler
HyGain
Cushcraft
GAP
Cubex
Mosley
Comet
Larsen
Gem
Arrow
and many more.
These all still exist. Gotham is gone. So what? You claim a lot of them are
