Too bad they didn't start with a couple small kits for ham radio, they would have sold like hot cakes.Originally Posted by W5GA
I am surprised at such a sudden deterioration in a woman whose only ailment was a lazy anus.
A radio kit that was advertised as anti-terrorist would have sold better.
Oh well. Maybe the name will be picked up by somebody else.
Hopefully someone who could get the documentation, and release it to the public domain.

Heathkit Declares Bankruptcy, Closes for Good (Again)

Perhaps some ham with money will purchase the old Heathkit amateur radio intellectual property and begin releasing kits. I bet an (updated) version of the SB-200 would sell pretty well—the things still fetch a good price on eBay.
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
Any number of parts suppliers could take on such an endeavor. Will it happen?
I've enjoyed island life for 17 years. That's 13 years more than the Confederacy was around.

When do you tell a woman you're a ham?
It's a jungle out there. Many EQ stupidly with poor articulation.

Hey, how about if each one of us Islanders pony up some money and buy the Heathkit IP ourselves? I'm sure that among the lot of us we could come up with at least a couple of hundred bucks! That should be enough.
