James, "which" specifications are worse?
The radios have a lot of specs.

There is a lot more to a radio's specs than Rob's list ranking by DR3.
To compare two radios by specs, I recommend reading Rob's 'FULL TEST REPORT'
for each radio.

ALL OF ROB'S TESTS in the past 10 years are available online to download and
read,

Good question, Rodney.

Nope... not kidding.   Kenwood sells the TS-990 for $8,000, and it has 
worse specifications than the $1500 TS-590 - AND GUYS ARE BUYING THEM.

I WOULD PAY $4440 for a radio that beats the Orion II which used to cost
around $4400.  Yeah, but it MUST BEAT the Orion II, or I just keep using
mine.
