[Fourlanders] TS-990 being built

[Ron Rogers]

Maybe Sherman really means that this radio is being built (and priced) to
fit the hard core DXer who is accustomed to spending big bucks toward
putting each new entity in the log as they climb that DXCC Honor Roll
ladder...

 

My first 170+  countries have been relatively cost acceptable using mostly
wires. However, as I reach for higher DXCC positioning I can see the need to
purchase more property, changing QTH, developing acres of land into antenna
fields, multiple towers, tons of new aluminum, obtain some REAL QRO power,
etc.

That's OK Jim. The video says the TS-990 is for Real DXers.

Good to see that someone somewhere has factories still making stuff.  I am
at CES in Vegas.  It is all about apps, software, hackathons, etc.  nothing
real anymore.  Anyway, a very nice rig.  Kim and I saw an early prototype at
the Kenwood hospitality suite in Dayton a couple of years ago.
Unfortunately, way out of my budget.
