Hello Doug,

Firstly, CALM DOWN. I never mentioned that the 10x was a bad radio. Chr**t, I have three of them. Also I am the most patriotic JR guy that I know, and will continue to be so.

However, I think in this case the silence from JR is driving some customers away. The 14MZ is far from perfect (so I have heard), but I think that JR should at least tell its valued customers something like this:

Yes guys, we will have something for you in the near future, and its worth waiting for. No idea of a release date yet, but you can expect something towards the end of the year.

Get my point.

Darryl
