James,
Any chance that you will be reissuing pr1, pr2, and pr3?

How can there be a market for portables & tabletops by Drake, Grundig,
Sangean,
et al.---enough of a market for mass-marketer Radio Shack to sell such
products--yet no market for SW car radios? This makes no sense.

As for the idea that the market *must* not exist because manufacturers
would
have tapped it if it did, this shows an attitude toward manufactuers'
intelligence and the efficiency of the marketplace which amounts to "all's
for
the best in this best of all possible [commercial] worlds," which I cannot
share.

As for the idea, "if you think there's a market, why don't you derail your
life
to exploit it?" I'm afraid I do have one or two other things to do that
are more
important to me. I see a dozen untapped commercial opportunities each
month;
it's not my business to pursue them, but to do my own work.

Thanks for the suggestions and ideas.
