Tom,

I've had this one  several years and it is out of production.  The newer 
models in the line will   run   439$ to 499$ depending on power rating. 
The $439 one is a new model rated at 600 watts.   Of course they also have 
other specialized  models for super high power, balanced line only, 
automatic   and so on that will cost more.

If I ever buy another tuner, it would be the Palstar auto.  Hey it's only 
money.

73, Steve KW3A
