Loren,

I was hoping to see the 480S numbers on the Sherwood Engineering 
website (Rob Sherwood is widely recognized as a receiver expert), but 
I don't see them there.  Somebody in Colorado needs to loan him a 
480S so he can make the measurements.

I've been mildly interested in one, too, as a DC-powered HF backup to 
my main rig, and six-meter rig.
