I guess having MFJ take them over is better than Cushcraft going out of business completely.

I joked with the sales guy about wanting to get one ASAP, before MFJ got their grubby little paws on it and "Martinized" it. He cracked up, and said the Laird Technologies rep had told him things were going to continue to be built in the same factory, to the same specs, by the same people "for at least the next six months", and that no changes would be made to their product line. So, if you want a Cushcraft product, I'd suggest ordering it NOW. 73, Jim KQ6EA

I don't know if this is good or not. We'll see.
