back to rich's question... "Am I missing something "

or for 10$ more,,,let us see :
1.  I loose a  100 watt transmitter .
2 ?????
3. ????

I do not believe that there are consumers who will pay $ 10.00 more for a 
receiver because there is no transmitter board. ( not even swls).
Hopefully someone will come up and illuminate the situation.
