The Paragon II is good.  I think the Corsair II may be even better, but my
Paragon II may need some TLC.

I was just now listening to an XE beacon on 10 meters while in the 
process of testing BandMaster with the Paragon II. I was pretty 
jazzed because I have heard nothing on 10 meters since I put the 
station together. Just for fun I switched on the Argo V and it 
couldn't even hear the beacon that was weak but clear copy on the OLD 
Paragon II. Looking at the sensitivity specs and having a "new is 
better" naivete, I expected the Argo to pick it up too. The K2 
couldn't grab it either.

Guess Ten Tec engineers knew a thing or two about building receivers 
before digital.
