Topband: RE: Omni VI+ A/B Test results

It seems to me that this list is quite meaningless without the inclusion of
the other popular radios.  Any hand picked (either intentional or not)
collection of radios will exhibit quite a bit of variation in the sorting of
this list.  Specifically, radios excluded from the list include...

1000D
756PROII
746PRO
746 (with filters of course)
a host of other quality equipment

Specific radios can exhibit varying degrees of misalignment.  Likewise,
tweaking ATT, PBT, and DSP controls can make an obvious difference.  Without
an exhaustive list of accessories, tuning procedures, controlling on-the-air
environment, and modifications included in the test, the situation is
repleat with opportunities to simply get the list all out of order.

What does it all mean?
