Thanks to all who replied to my question about which
contest rig to choose. Here are the results in the
different categories:
Under $600
1st Kenwood TS830
2nd Kenwood TS930
$600 to $1000
1st Kenwood TS850
2nd Icom 765
Yaesu FT990
$1000-$1500
Icom 756 PRO
Everything else received 1 vote
Over $1500
1st Yaesu FT1000MP MKV
2nd Icom 756PRO II
Yaesu FT1000D
Most of these choices were exactly what I was thinking
of myself in these price ranges. I was a little
surprised that the FT1000 MP (original) did not
receive more votes. Same for the Icom 761. The
Kenwood TS950SDX only received 1 vote in its category,
which was surprising. Also, the original 756 did not
receive any votes, but the Yaesu FT920 did better than
I expected. It must be a pretty good radio.
Thanks to everyone who responded. This will help out
greatly with my newsletter article.
