Some Thoughts
It is sad to see two amateur radio equipment manufacturers going out of business. When was the last time you purchased a new piece of gear? Fortunately, both Icom and Yaesu make aircraft band transceivers; Kenwood makes a lot of commercial walkies. It does not look like any of them they will go out of business soon. But you never can tell. The time to buy a new radio or antenna is NOW! Do it while you still can.
