For anyone interested, the ARRL review (to be published in the
August issue) is not posted on the members website.
I haven't had time to read the whole thing yet, but took just a cursory
look at some receiver numbers. At 20Khz spacing, the 7800 does
have very remarkable numbers. At 5 Khz, the Orion beats it handily
in all of BDR, two tone 3rd order DR, and IP3. So I guess if you are
going to be operating in a fairly empty band, the 7800 is the way to
go :-)
Rather than a single review this time -- they did it in several parts.
Basic ARRL type stuff, a separate review for HF Digital, another
review for contesting and yet another review for 6M weak signal DX.
They DO seem to like it ..
