Any new HF rigs in the pipeline?

There doesn't seem to be many mobile HF radio's coming out any more. Yaesu introduced the FT-891 but that was years ago. Icom is still sticking with the ugly IC-7100 and Kenwood has no mobile HF radio. Alinco doesn't make HF radio's anymore either. Is this the end of HF mobile radio?
I just bought a 7100 today. I like the way it looks!
 
Congrats on the rig!

I just said what I did because I like the modern look and features of the IC-7000 and when it was discontinued and replaced by the IC-7100, I felt it was a step backwards. Just my personal preference and opinion though.

It was an impulse buy I guess. I have a DX10 I enjoy and didn't "need" the 7100.
Minty one for about 700 bucks seemed a decent deal.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
