I just couldn't stay on the sidelines with the latest news about a new Yaesu FT2000D. It seems that with the number of IC-7800's supposedly already sold, and now with Yaesu joining the fray, the market for a high end radio is being proven. Let's face it, Men & their toys =$$$. A Harley will sell for $25,000+ and people buy them.

   When I suggested that TenTec should start designing an "Omega" to compete, people said there needs to be a market proven for it. Well it sems we have it.

    With Doug Smith gone, Hopefully they still have the engineering expertise left to design and build a "Harris commercial Grade" equivalent to stay in the new high end game. 73.
