Well, let's see here...All three Jap radio manufacturers are seeing 
slugish sales in USA.  Rumor has it that one of the big three is even 
considering quiting USA.

Now they come out with a megabuck linear.  Just who will buy this 
monster?  Why would anybody want it?  Sounds like a last-chance "power" 
drive to me!
