I also read all the info on this thread and what I find is this:
The thread inputs come from a group of hams who, like myself, decide for
themself, based on their own comparisons to other manufacturers rigs
sittting on their own desk and operating from their own station set up.
Minute technical analysis is good press, but how a rig perform on one's on
set up and to one's own ears, literally is what determines what each ham is
going to use.
One's opinion is only biased when they make no comparisons.
