- Sean: For what its worth. We took 2 rigs on a contest-pedition 2 years ago, an 850 and a 570. The bad news was the 850 went QRT. The worse news was we had to use the 570. It sucked. The next year I w

- Lots of people yakking about the 570 not being up to snuff as a contest rig. Oddly, no details are being presented. Anyone care to detail? 570. band

- Dennis My twopence or is it 2 cents worth. The 570 is a nice rig. I've used it on several DXpeditions with great success BUT I agree that it doesn't quite come up to snuff as a serious contest rig. W

- Main problem is AGC pumping and selectivity. In a contest, you're always going to have QRM. The ability to copy a signal thru the QRM in an 850 is much better, at least in my experiences, then the 57

- Dennis Younker NE6I brings up a valid question. Two years ago, almost to this week, my house (not the antennas) were struck my lightning and it took out an IC751A and TS870. I purchased another TS870

- Many contesters and DXers have recommended the TS-850 to me as one of the best deals in its price range, so I bought one a couple months ago. I've been more than happy with it so far. The receiver is
