If SSS is so much the cat's meow, why havn't the radio manufacturer's released high end 9 or 10 channel radios on 2.4? That's holding up the switch over for a lot of us. I have airplanes that can't use just 6 or 7 channels. Maybe this is the last flying season we will have to deal with 72mhz. But Futaba and JR are giving us no indication of what to expect.

Great question Chris.... my guess is marketing.. There is inventory of non-module type 72Mhz systems they need to sell out. Phase in of the Ghz systems is controlled for that reason as much as anything else. From their view point (money) I can understand the phase-in route.
