Selecting a TXCVR s MUCH more difficult than that web page...Even 
though it is very hepful.
Features, ergos, just plain do you really enjoy using it...are very 
important.
I would want to try a Eagle before I buy one.

Yeah, really! here is more to life than 2kc Dynamic Range!!

What about the "Sweetness Factor"?...we KNOW the Corsairs and Omni V 
are
SWEET rigs! I'd hesitate to give either one up for anything not yet
known to me.

I can't imagine any receiver totally blowing away my Omni V except 
maybe
in the worst 5% of crowded and loud situations. Above that, it is an 
old
favorite that is a joy to operate! No number captures that quality.

Most of the radios I have had in the top 15 or 20 on Sherwood's list
have been really decent performers, but that list will never capture 
the
subjective appeal of one over another. I think that is what the
questions about comparisons are getting at.

Close-in blocking performance is only part of the puzzle, and a small
one at that for 95% of operating.
