[RSM] Radidios

Hi, Kelly:

May I suggest you look at the Sherwood Engineering receiver tests to see 
how well the IC-7300 performs? In it's price class there is nothing 
better and it outperforms rigs two to three times as expensive.

Conditions during contest weekends, especially on RTTY, have been 
difficult. In the NAQP RTTY 40-meters was an amazing sight on the '7300 
bandmap (just a solid wall of stations). Shelley and I, using the proper 
DSP settings, had no issues with receiver performance at all. I've never 
seen a problem created by poor receiver performance in any contest.

Over the years we've used many rigs from the FT450 to the TS590S and the 
Elecraft K3. The receiver performance is precisely why we selected the 
'7300 in late 2018 and we do not regret the choice for a moment.

Here is the link to Rob Sherwood's web page:
