?I posted this today on eham:
I have been eyeing this radio for some time, including following the reviews
here. I had an opportunity to play with one today and discovered one minor, one
major, and one serious issue. I think the location of the notch/nr control and
the M-CH/SUB DIAL should have been swapped. This is minor and not a deal
breaker. With the likelihood of using external amplifier, each connector should
have it's own independent "send control jack". Again not a deal breaker as I
can use my PC to accomplish this. Finally, there is no independent receive
antenna connection. For low band enthusiasts this is a "must have". There is
probably some way to use the alternate HF, but even if there is, it would be
extremely inconvenient at best. As an avid contester on both HF and VHF/UHF
this looked like a great 2nd radio. Unless someone has a solution to this, I
will pass on this radio. :(
