It is my understanding that RL Drake makes more from the
Grundig Satellit 800-M "Licensing Agreement" with the
ETON Corporation then from the Sales of the Drake R8B.

If this is true, then the Eton E1 AM/FM Shortwave Receiver
with XM Satellite Radio with the internal Circuit Design
work done by Drake may be a bigger profit center then for
the RL Drake Company then any new R8C or R9 Receivers
could be for keeping the company in business.

My suspicion is that it's the non-shortwave-related stuff they produce
that's keeping them in business...the digital TV and satellite TV
products. The 800, while profitable, is probably a tiny blip on their
radar screen.

Is this Drake subtle way of saying that the R8B is riding off into the
sunset in the near future?

Perhaps even Drake itself?
