Wait a minute...
The Corsair receives better than a IC-7300? My Corsair is a "keeper",
but why would I want a 7300, even to replace my Paragon. Maybe a 7300
is better than a Paragon. Even so, I would expect a "modern" radio to
perform better than a vintage one.

I don't think you want to compare RGO to IC7300 or IC705, if you do then just
buy one of those. They are greatly more feature rich for the dollar. But, if
you already have one of those - I have IC7300, maybe an RGO can find a place in
the shack. Steve N4LQ did a video comparing CW with IC7300 and Corsair II.
Corsair II won very big, IMO even when noise reduction was turned on for the
Icom. But, this specific comparison is for the sound from the speaker, not
frequency stability, memories, or modes! Corsair wins on quiet rx. I find that
IC7300 is vastly closer to Corsair when I turn the AGC off. I would like to
hear how RGO compares to Corsair and IC7300 on CW as Steve set things up - with
equal speakers. My guess is RGO will have notably quiet audio from the samples
I've heard. That could make it a nice niche machine. I posted about this
because it seems like the project is moving ahead, as compared to others - like
the Palstar transceiver project that faded before launch.
