Indeed, Rob is providing some food for thought for the amateur community -
"technical innovation" has certainly bloated the price of Icom and Yaesu's
$10,000 flagships, but their upconversion main receiver designs inherently
limits in-close cw reception performance. This ain't rocket science, just a
real head scratcher why only Ten-Tec seems to get it.
