Strategies vary, but if I didn't have one, I'm of the school that it's
better to get a receiver that's actually made currently than be stuck
with a broken one when it breaks.
The R8B is very nice but it's also a lot of money. My chief unmet need
is a better selectivity against really huge signals on the adjacent
channel, so as to copy 910 kHz LSB when there's a local on 920.
Unfortunately I can't null the 920 because I'm already nulling another
station on 910.
The R8B does pretty well but I need more dB here.
