Nothing worse than clanking relays running VOX on SSB without QSK.  And even
though much data traffic takes place at low power, I can't imagine how one
would run most modern data protocols without QSK if running an amp were
contemplated.  I'm a casual CW operator at best, and still wouldn't own an
amp that didn't have QSK.  

Hard to understand why a simple price increase has engendered the level of
flames and bad juju.  It's just a price increase :-)
