You can say the same thing about high power or big antennas ...
An effective station automation system and second rig for SO2R will
set the average person back $3000 - $4000. A modest tribander and
60-70' of tower plus installation will cost at least that much as
will a "legal limit" amplifier. In all three cases it may be possible
to scrounge, buy used, or build for less but the cost/benefit ratio is
still about the same.
