[TenTec] ARRL Icom 7800 Review Published

[Grant Youngman]

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 ..
