So far, this is very nice.

The NR (which I almost never used) seems more effective than I recall. I like it better under the RF AGC by quite a bit. Using it on CW under the AF AGC masks a lot of the weak signals. I will need to play a lot to learn the strengths and weaknesses of the two AGC options.

The spectrum display is nice. About all I can think of that I'd prefer to be different is that, instead of a small blue cursor showing me my where I'm tuning across the display, I'd prefer a vertical blue line extending to the bottom of the display. That is, however, a very small matter.

Many will not be pleased with whatever is in here. I was happy before and so clearly benighted in my ignorance. I'm happy now, too, and so still clearly benighted...
