Just because you don't operate CW doesn't mean there isn't a market out
there for a CW amplifier.

"More than 10,000 logs have been submitted for the CQ World Wide DX
Contest, according to Contest Director Bob Cox, K3EST. In addition, Cox
reports that the number of CW logs have exceeded the number of phone logs
for the first time in more than 20 years.

According to Cox, there were a total of 5013 SSB logs and 5272 CW logs
submitted for the 2008 running of the event, for a total of 10,285 logs.
This is the first time that the CQWW – already the world’s most popular
amateur radio contest – has broken the 10,000 log mark. Of these, nearly
98% were submitted electronically.

It is also the first time since 1986 that more CW logs have been submitted
than SSB logs.

Evidently there is still a LOT of interest in CW.  At least 5272 potential
customers are out there.
