It's billed as an SDR with knobs plus a touch screen spectrum display. All that's true, sort of, but the display is too small for the touch function to work very well. If you want the features of an SDR with the performance of a real radio, you've got to aim a LOT higher. There's a reason that the Flex and Elecraft radios cost as much as they do.
