Folks, for those of you who have these rigs, can you pass along your
pro's & cons ? It's time for a new rig. I am primarily a CW op and
contester. The principle rig in the shack is a Icom 765 which has
served me well. In my mode of operation, 500 Hz is about as tight as
I like to go from a IF passband prospective. I am looking for things
like AGC action, QSK response times, envelope patterns on first QSK
character ( full dot ) etc. What is required for the computer
interface ? Are there any troubles using CT / DVP ? Side tone
tracking, adjacent channel interference and other subjective
evaluations as well. Last but not least, ease of operability. How
much time do you have to devote to playing with either of the rigs
during a contest ?
Thanks for your time and patience and please answer to me personally,
if there is interest I will summarize and publish to the reflector.
