An assembled base 100W K3 is $2350 and shipping.
If that's a stretch for a customer then he should be buying an Eagle...not an
OIII
An Omni VII costs more than a base K3....and is way more capable. We don't
need to take the OIII down below that....that's an unreasonable expectation.
$4K don't leave Ten-Tec a lot of room to be a game changer. We're talking
flagship here so it won't be a radio for everyone....just as Icoms 7800,
Kenwoods 990 etc...
And making it a Cadillac at a Chevrolet price and allowing you to put the
Cadillac emblems on later is easy to do when you don't have other products in
your line to protect and work around.
Ten-Tec is not Elecraft...and I'm glad...I like big knobs and radios..and
better audio and a remote pod...
Let's not mess it up.
