It's too early to think like this.

I remember the old days of Valliants and Globe Kings, Champions., Galaxys
and of course The Swan series with the Driftmaster 350 and Driftmaster
500.
There are a few QRP kits with names.
Does any have manufacturar of ham gear give a name for their rigs other
than
TenTec? No?
Does any have manufacturar of ham gear have a more unique product than
TenTec? No?
Well, what's in a name anyway? What's more descriptive CPS or Hertz?
Well Guess what is more unique...
