I think a lot of us are essentially in the same situation: We already have a good legal-limit amp covering 160 through 10, but we don't have anything similar for 6 or 2. It takes real commitment to pay essentially the same amount over again and get just one more band, and building is a lot of work too. Any manufacturer who can include 6m along with HF has a huge advantage IMHO, and including 2m would be fantastic. QEX had a design some years ago that covered both 6 and 2; that really got me interested. Alpha was supposed to pick it up as part of their product line, but I don't know if it ever happened. I think there are plenty of areas in the market that haven't become commoditized.
