- The Jupiter is an intriguing rig. The trait that I am most interested in is ease of use. How intuitive is it to operate? I really don't care for radios with tons of menus, cryptic buttons, and non-in

- I think that I am missing a very basic point here: Why would anyone spend over a thousand bucks for a radio and then not be willing to spend the time that it takes to absorb the contents of an instru

- George, I can't speak for others, only myself. I picked the 706 because it has all the coverage I could want in one small package. Low profile shack, the wife is happy. It has a very nice remote tune

- I agree with Tracy. I have an IC-706MkII in my motorhome which I use infrequently. If I want to change modes, it is a pain. Out comes the manual to figure out how to maneuver the nested menus. In con

- The idea makes perfect sense actually...especially if one owns a recent imported transceiver that is nearly 100% menu-driven (e.g., Yaesu FT-100D). After owning a Yaesu FT-1000MP, I found that I was
