I went to a high-end music/home theatre store the other day to kill
some time since I was early for picking up my wife at the airport.

They had some very nice power strips.  12 protected and filtered
AC outlets with a half-dozen protected F-connector RF ports.
Plus some LEDs to show 100, 110, 120, 130, 140 VAC and
four or five to show current.  Looked pretty nice for the ham station
until I saw that the price was $250 for a lousy power strip!

I am in the WRONG business!
