Agreed but they don't.
That's exactly why dual receive is so important to us all. Art is right if you
can get it dual receive is great to have.
Personally after having dual receive on my IC-775 and on a previous FT-920 and
IC-756PRO, IMHO I think it should be standard
equipment on anything out there today.
