Default Why Have 72 mhz Radios Not Come Down In Price?

Hello!

Ever since the arrival of 2.4ghz a few years ago, I have been waiting for the prices of our "obsolete" radios to divebomb, but they have not.
I understand the high end systems can be converted to 2.4, but even still, I expected more of a difference that what I am seeing.
Especially with the agressive anti-72 marketing campaigns, how can the manufacterers justify keeping the prices up?

Thank you,

Graeme
