There is something in this entire thread that stands out about myself in this ...

Original versus upgraded.

One side of this - people are demanding an upgrade because of the inherited traits the original design had, are no longer acceptable. Whether it's in power or modulation or receiver performance - many a customer asks us - would it help to keep the radio or should I get a new one?

Now to me, the original is what got them into radio.

If I brought out the 955 or a RCI - and then...

If I brought out a replacement CB just like what they had...

The customer has to choose - but asked me to help them make that choice.

Which one is fair - a direct replacement or an entirely new platform and layout with totally different technology.

I'm up against these choices every day...

I'd like to know what others think...
