Dave,
I wonder how the sensitivity will compare to a true 2 meter all mode rig. I
have enver used a xverter but always if the operator had a "high end" rig
how it would work as a tuneable I.F. for the 2 meter band.

Also wonder how T-T's xverter will compare to commercially available units
such as the units designed for the early 80's Knwd and Yaesu rigs.

Good luck Dave and keep us posted!!!
