hehe, in america marketing is more important than anythign else (so i've noted at least..) the big companies can afford to market their "big" radios and that's all that matters. I must say though tentec does market theirs farily well.. and they also seem to ~work~ fairly well... that's a plus :)

Indeed, Rob is providing some food for thought for the amateur community -
"technical innovation" has certainly bloated the price of Icom and Yaesu's
$10,000 flagships, but their upconversion main receiver designs inherently
limits in-close cw reception performance. This ain't rocket science, just a
real head scratcher why only Ten-Tec seems to get it.
