Have read on another forum that AOR have been badly affected by a worldwide semiconductor shortage and that there there will be limited stock and the next production runs are as follows:
AR-DV1: October 2022
AR-DV-10: May 2022
AR-6000: May 2022
Thinking this might be Fake News I was directed to Andrews Communications the Australian AOR distributor for clarification...

Before buying my 5700D in May from Ham Radio Outlet, I emailed AOR-USA about availability. AOR's response was that they had two 5700D's in stock in their California facility. Not 22, or 12, just 2. Makes you wonder.

If the dates are correct, it could be a very long time before those Radios appear on the shelves again, and few Companies could be expected to survive that long without sales.

Perhaps 'Au revoir' will need to be re-spelt as
'AO Revoir', as in Goodbye AOR.

Look at the bright side---- think of the resale value if you happen to have a couple of spare AOR's that you're not using!
