I've been really enjoying my O2, especially today when I worked country
number 323 for me, Gibraltar on 17 CW. I never worked much CW before I
bought this rig, probably because I never used a really good CW transceiver
before. Working the ZB2 required 'pulling out all the stops', including the
300 Hz filter. I got the 3Y0 in SSB on three bands so far, and using the
sub receiver in the right-side headphone to listen up and track where he's
listening is an amazing tool.
