What are you smokin? Theres more radios out there than any other time
in history of mankind and with Ebay and the internet the market is
saturated. Drake and others have sold a bazillion of em to everybody,
well the market has slowed. Bi deal! Every major radio co. has quit
building radios at one time or another. And mankind will continue to
use the HF spectrum until long after were dead. Do us a favor and put
yourself out of your own misery.

I just looked at the R. L. Drake site and now there is no longer a

mention
of
ANY shortwave receivers on their Products page.

Oh well, perhaps at some time they will again re-enter the market.
