A nice analysis, but it is not totally accurate. The government's inflation calculator does not take into account the growth in manufacturing productivity over the same period. For example, the price

First you say this : Yet, then you wander hopelessly off into this: And what about labor costs, and other pieces of the "costs of goods" ? There's much to do this that what you suggest ... much more!

Art, some good points. Billy, I'm not sure what you are getting at. Productivity has everything to do with keeping prices down when faced with an increase in wages. My point on productivity is that t

I think that all the analysis is fine but the real question is: How much will the average ham pay for a rig with the features and specs of the 516? Dave N1IX

Ten years ago (maybe 12) I suggested to Larry Wirth that Ten-Tec re-introduce the Triton 544 as a mid-line rig. He said that it would cost over $2,500 to build at that time because its construction w

But, what if TT has purchased sufficient parts to manufacture the rig over its lifetime (5 years?) at a cost of $162.97 plus a manufacturing cost (well, automated board stuffing and testing, this was

Well, Ten Tec had to stop selling the Omni+ nearly a year ahead of when the Orion may be shipped. Why? Because they could no longer afford to; the cost was way too high for reasonable profit at all a

Good point. No real comparison to other QRP rigs? Well, maybe the SGC QRP rig? The DSP filtering may separate the Ten Tec offering from the others. The Elecraft is a kit, over $1K with the good stuff

Clark, I'm wondering what you didn't like about the 817's receiver? It's no Omni VI, but I've found it quite a capable performer with the Inrad/Collins 300hz filter. The ARRL Expanded Test Report num

It is just that the 817, stock, didn't impress me at all while I used it. And comparing the ARRL tests against those for the K2, well, not much of a comparison. Certainly adequate for most operation.
