Joe, you're right--there are fewer and fewer choices--and on that basis,
now might be the time to buy.
On the other hand, we have to ask the obvious question: WHY are there
fewer and fewer choices?
At least two obvious answers come to mind:
1)The manufacturers see fewer buyers for their products.
2) Maybe the -manufacturers- view short wave as, if not dying, at least
tapering off, with less to listen to and therefore fewer potential buyers.
If the market was there, one would think the manufacturers would be
there to satisfy the demand.
Is the hand writing on the wall?
