Hi Curt,

It has been my experience that the Omni VII is more sensitive and more
immune to adjacent signals than my previous rig, an FT1000MP MrkV Field with
roofing filter.  I've used the Omni VII in several contests now and it
doesn't de-sense like the Field did under certain busy contest conditions.
But don’t take my word for it.  Check the rig's references.

Check out the ARRL test of the Omni VII in the July issue of QST or online.
Also check out the test data in the table comparing many rigs at:

Planning to replace my Icom 718 with one of these, wondering whether added
$1k cost of the Omni VII warranted.  I have no plans to remotely control, is
performance significantly different?
