##  actually it is new.  It's been completely re-designed..abt 2 years ago.
The cooling has been completely overhauled...complete with new front panel
design, + bigger air inlets, bigger diameter fans, one extra fan added to
the mix.... and new version also has PIN Diode QSK. (no qsk on the older
version).  They used a new clamping technique for the pair of devices,
which are now 189's..instead of 188's.   A bunch of new  firmware and
software upgrades.   The price on the new version went up too.   $5K.  The
old version, in kit form, was  $3.6 k.
