[AMPS] MFJ-259B Question

[Joe Subich, K4IK]

Great!  I see that rather than dealing with the factual 
issue concerning the ethics of marketing a product of 
dubious value simply because of a market demand you 
chose to resort to your normal tactics ... (1) ignore the 
evidence that doesn't support your position (2) change 
the topic (3) engage in name calling (4) make snide 
remarks <chortle!>. 

In case it matters, I have met Tom fewer than half a 
dozen times ... generally at one hamfest or another ... 
in 30 plus years as a licensed amateur.  I own only 
one MJF product (an inexpensive digital clock).  

As one who was involved behind the scenes several 
years ago in producing a product for the amateur 
market, I respect the effort it takes to build and 
market a product with reasonable quality at a price 
acceptable to the average (cheap) amateur.  

Compromises between cost and quality must be made ... 
of course you are free to put your MONEY where your 
MOUTH is and actually market a real amplifier.  If 
you are right, amateurs will be standing in line for 
the Measures Amplifier at $4500+ per copy vs. $3000 
for a similar "inferior" product.
