One thing to keep in mind, both of the radios you discribe need additional
filters, the new Argonaut V has built-in DSP filtering just like the
Jup/Peg. That has to be worth something. After using my Jup for a year
now, I still love all the capabilities that the Jup offers. A comparable
rig would cost another $250 in filters, Keep that in mind.
