I can't agree more with Peter on this point. I was saddened by the discontinuation of the 1W SDR-1000 though I understand it from FRS's business standpoint. For my VHF+ work I just can't justify dropping about 3K on a 5000a to be used as a 10m IF. And for $479 the Indian board sure beats the $641 for an unknown condition 1W SDR-1000 that sold yesterday on eBay.
I think there is a hole that needs to be filled with a low cost SDR radio and since FRS decided to abandon that market why should they or anyone be upset that someone else moved in?
