Jeesh! Why does someone eventually have to come along and turn a perfectly good and informational read into a "eham review, or article"?

I'm also glad, that you choose not to part with your Corsair II. It's a perfectly good, and SIMPLE radio! There are just some people out there that cannot function without simplicity in their lives!

The delete key is great, but I have to read your stupid comment first to decide whether I need to delete it or not!

I do a lot of weak signal 80 meter work and going from the RF gain to NB, AN, etc. by way of the buttons and then back to a button so I can â??rideâ?? the RF gain control is a pain in the neck. A way to re-program the â??basically redundant and useless Hi Cut/ Lo Cut knobâ?? to a RF gain control (or a mod to add a RF gain control) would be great!
