Interesting that it performs worse in Rob’s key litmus test than the 7300 mk 1.
I was similarly disappointed to see the 7760 be only a titch better than a
7610. (Not entirely disappointed, though, given the price spread between a new
7760 and a used 7610.
Also, always interesting when perusing his list just how poorly many previous
“flagship” radios performed. When you compare what some people ask for used
TS950SDX models to the new price of, say, an FTDX10…
Of course, I realize more goes into a purchase decision than just all-out RX
performance, but some newer radios aren’t even trying to reach for the bronze
or silver standard, let alone the gold standard!
