Would it kill a company to make a 10-12 meter look at least half that good without a multi-thousand $ pricetag?

The only regret i have is i didn't buy the ft-100d before i bought 2 dx-70's .... not that they are not fine radios they are but the ft-100 gives you 2 and 440 in one radio and now im driving a rice bucket there an't the room of the 79 cady!
Im gree with envy in a nice way thats one heck of a toy! Do you think ranger will make a export one .... he he copper would make a killing on it!
