Heh, heh, heh....  My radio hobby is far, far cheaper thusfar than many
of my other hobbies.....  fast cars, fast bikes, fast computers,
shooting/reloading, mountainbiking....

Any number of hobbies this price point would fit right nicely....

Sporting Clays shooters regularly spend $5-10k or more for a shotgun. 
$10k plus on a 4 wheel vehicle to haul them and their equipment around
the course...

Pay $35-50 for the privilege of ONE ROUND of birds.... plus another
$30-40 for one round's worth of ammo...
THOUSANDS of dollars a year for entry fees, travel, lodging, etc.... 
just to make dust out of little bits of clay

73,
