The subject hardware, as most of the folks here probably already know,
is a DSP unit which is installed into the Yaesu SP-6 external speaker.
I have received generally good reports on this unit but would like a
little bit more of a confirmation from this group. I think it might be
a worthwhile addition to my 990AC.
Secondly, given Timewave's Chapter 11 status (or is it 13?) the
distribution of the unit is being accomplished by an firm called
Great River Electronic in MN. Their web site states that the two
developers of the DSP-59Y are the owners of Great River Electronics.
The site also says that the unit is being sold for approx. half of the
price that it was listed for with Timewave.
Always being a firm believer in the old adage .. "Ya get what you pay
for" .. I would appreciate any comments on this subject.
