I dont think they exist anymore Ajax..
I agree, their staff used to be excellent, but I think they relied a lot on HAM radio sales for income, and the advent of the internet has really hurt the HAM Radio guys.
Why spend thousands on kilowatt radio transmitters and 50 foot high antenna's and having to study and get a licence to talk to someone on the otherside of the world for free, when now you can just shoot them an email from any street corner, or if you want voice, plug a microphone into your computer ?
So the radio sales died, and so did Stewarts.. Rockby Electronics

has taken over as far as the best range goes, but I havent grilled any of their staff to see what their technical nouse is like yet
