Hi.

I think they painted themselves into a corner by not putting a visual 
display on there as well.  That pretty much guaranteed that only blind 
operators would buy them, and only ones that didn't already have some other 
meter that was accessible.  I think that if they had put an actual meter on 
there, they would have had some sales in the sighted ham community as well 
and these meters would have been more widely received.  Just my two cents.
