RE: Loans & Costs & Such Things

I think you are right about the extreme production to sale ratio at AN Wojciech.
I know that long time ago at the golden age of tubes every radio, amplifier and so on was handmade and hand wired. They cost a fortune too in those days but never so exctreme as AN.
The differance is is that AN is "high end" , whatever that means, and for high end equipement manufactures ask what ever they Want to. If there is a fool who wants to pay for they are lucky.
Probably Peter will say that the materials will cost a fortune but none of the materials used in the AN cost a fortune in the real world, only at AN.
