I have to opposite opinion of the menu.
Couldn't have a simpler menu.
It is different and you have to get used to it, but different does not equal
difficult or bad.

Within days you use the menu in your sleep and never have to consult the
book.

The relay is loud but there are fixes for that.

I tried an Eagle at the factory and didn't like it. Too small, noisy TR QSK
relay, menus etc.
For some reason everyone including TT stopped using those quiet little reed
relays and now use those noisy metal encased relays. I really can't
understand why unless it's something in the manufacturing process. So
there's no reason for me to want one.
