[BC] Freeland Tubes now gone, taken over by Econco

The tube types still being made are in general for uses other than 
broadcast such as industrial heating and certain VHF and UHF 
applications. I really think broadcast is an after thought at this point.

For Freeland, it was a good time to get out before it shrinks to nothing. For Econco, it is a way to increase market share for the short term, but you have to ask --what is their long term growth plan?  Will they just keep raising prices to maintain and increase revenues?  The number of tube transmitters is shrinking, not growing.
