Sometimes I think Clark says things just to wind folks up.
The Corsair II is a butt-ugly kinda deathly grey/white. The Corsair I is
a beautiful dark grey and I think it is the prettiest Ham radio ever
built.
I distinctly recall seeing the C-II at Dayton when they first were
introduced (I still own the C-I I owned at that time) and thought, Oh my
God! What have they done? I really wanted the VBT and a noise blanker
that was more than a decorative knob, but I was unwilling to ugly up my
shack with that box.
Of course that's just my opinion, I could be wrong...
