Now, for the "SolCon". Good – I'm glad it isn't similar. Unfortunately, your representative (Mark Randall) wasn't clear on this, because HE said it was similar, and that was why you would not be interested in supporting our product. He said, and I quote "So we'll be supporting our own version, of course". If he was mistaken, and this is not similar, then I imagine there is some other reason he is not privy to that caused the reversal in his (and presumably the company's) attitude. Now, I'll grant you that a spokesmans opinions do not (always) a company's policy make, but he seems to see things differently than your stated position(s) in this note, and he certainly changed his tune over the two weeks that NewTek was in posession of our data sheet. Notice there is NO implication there, only facts. Feel free to explain all you want, I'm sure I'm very interested. I can see that you would be upset that there were some very negative opinions voiced here; but you jumped too quickly yourself as far as finger pointing goes. Right now, we're very busy with the FCC approval of our hardware so that this new product, like our previous hardware product, will be legal and above board. It's really time consuming, and I don't particularly want to waste time fighting/arguing with you or your company. Best to leave it be, I think – And I'm sure that all here would be fascinated to hear about the SolCon, us included. Ben Amateur Radio Callsign is A A 7 A S
