I've been sitting on the sidelines taking it all in. I very much enjoyed Scott's long, well thought out, sensible, poignant and proactive reply to the gentleman who had the need to bitch and complain

Color is pretty irrelevant when it comes to radios. The successful selling Yaecomwoods, whether or not they performed at a level comensurate with their prices, have in recent years been of the darker
I think it's rather simple. First come first served. Then again it's not always that simple, especially when dealing with our "thrifty" brothers and sisters. I will keep an item posted until I receiv

I've been using a Heil HM-10, dual element (HC-4/HC-5) with my OMNI VI (opt.3) for some time now with no problems. It seems that after having the opt. 3 mod done, there was a bit more gain in the OMN
Whether you like QST's methodology or if their intentions are altruistic or if they are "cuddling up" to their advertisers, they are still light years ahead of CQ and any other publication in the tho

I've been reading the ongoing thread about the soon to be released Orion. It sure does sound like it will be a hot radio. I own an OMNI VI (Ver.3) and will not likely be buying an Orion. Not in the b
Scott, I'm extremely satisfied with the carefully thought out responses you gave to the "reflectites." It seems your reassuring words may do much to assuage those whose blood pressures I could feel b
