Duane:
I agree, I think N1RL wrote an informative and positive article on the
Pegasus.  His comments were consistent with my observations in most respects.
And no, I certainly am not saying or expecting that the Pegasus should be the
equivalent of a $3000 radio. What I am saying is that there is a heck of a lot
of radio there for $1000. I'm looking forward to the full ARRL review.
