I am also an avid VHF'er and I think getting rid of the 1W version stinks! BUT ... perhaps if the new version puts out 100W on 6m and 2m as well as HF (not sure if anyone cares about HF? haha) ... then maybe we'll be happier!

Our cost to build the radio has increased substantially. We will continue to support all models well into the future. John P. Basilotto W5GI Marketing and Sales 512 535-5266 Why? Is it that big a deal to build a SDR-1000 without the 100W amp, heck its built modularly anyway. Some VHFers with transverters dont want the amp, I know we are a small minority, but is there something else? Does that mean that the 1 watt SDRs may never get the forward power meter working in CW in a future PowerSDR version? 73 Mike - KM0T > The 1 watt SDR-1000 is being discontinued on Feb 1, 2007. > > > > The 100 watt SDR-1000 price as of Feb 1, 2007 will be $1499.
