Allan is right. Black is not beautiful on radios!
I preferred the lighter colors of the Omni VI, but liked the old
Triton IV and original Argonaut even better!
I've probably operated a dozen contests with the Argonaut set up
in a tent and using only candle light to see (backlight was
switched off to save power which was being taken from my
motorcycle battery). That's when you really "see" a difference
between a light-colored and dark-colored radio!
If you like, take a look at one of my portable setups at
www.dj0ip.de (opening picture).
I bet this QTH rivaled Yuri's for good take-off!
