[Icom] market share

Sat, 16 Mar 2002 12:15:38 -0800

I was thinking gross revenue sales in amateur radio equipment.  I =
suppose the corporate structures would not reveal their total sales in =
amateur radio world wide.

I'd be interested in the where the information is obtained by that =
"large ham chain".

There are some here that are not interested in this discussion even =
though it may affect their used equipment sales in the future. Like, =
maybe, buy low sell high kinda stuff. =20

Best regards Caity,

Actually, they are currently #1 in the world, if the good folks at a
large ham chain are to be believed.

#1 refers to current market.  Once upon a time Drake had market share
too.  Kenwood was #1 20 years go, but are a weak third now. =20
