i was talking to craig at kiwa electronics today and he couldn't
believe it as he knows as a matter of his business how popular the
r75
is.
i understand his reasoning but the r-75 has some nasty little warts
that need work before it's a good modern rcvr, hence craig's
business.
but today, given an rf preamp chip, an analog devices adc, an fpga,
a
coupla ti dsp processors, a coupla voltage regulator chips, and you
have a very high performance radio...ever open a ten-tec...there's
nothing inside. i'm sure icom is about to come out with a very
modern
rcvr derived from the dsp based receivers in their new transceivers.

I fully agree Icom has something to take it's place. Perhaps a beefed
up
R-75 base with all the fixes plus better DSP at an affordable price. I
hope
they don't cut corners too much if they do come out with something
new.
If I
didn't own a R-75, I would been buying one right away.
This may the last chance to pick a brand new communications receiver
with
DSP that performs so well for the money.
Sans wild brand loyalty, no one here that loves SW radio that tried a
R-75
for a month would really have much to complain about and would want to
keep
it.
'Wild brand loyalty' has nothing to do with it. Tried one out, decided
it
wasn't
that great. Didn't buy.

Gee I'm pretty surprised Ace. I would figured you of all people would
love
it for it's DXing performance. I will admit it takes a little getting
used
to before you cozy up to it. But once you realize what you can do with
it,
you'll be happy. You can't just try it for 5 min. You have to experience
conditions where it shows you how well it brings signals in this cruel
world.
I hate to be very cruel, but so be it. You haven't even cozied up to the
R75
well enough yet to even be able to 'zero-beat' a signal so as to properly
report
its frequency.
I'm not sure if that's a fault on your part, or on the part of the R75,
but I'm
fairly certain that after some period of time you'll be able to master its
quirks.

ace, you are a ****en moron. I'm finally putting you on ignore. I have put
some people on ignore for spamming, some for racism, but I'm putting you on
ignore cause you're a unpleasant human being and that's the honest to G-D
truth. You are a depressed washed up person. It's so obvious you are jealous
of me and you have good reason to be.
Now, I realize you have an inferiority complex. If I sounded like a teenager
and was all alone all my life I'd be mad too. If you see other people happy,
you can't take it. If you see someone DX a nice frequency, you can't take it
and have to try and top them or belittle them.
You think you run this NG but you don't. You're basically a lazy faggot who
knows how to operate one radio and this is your anchor to reality and fame.
I believe you can't even afford to buy a R-75 so you'll sit with that old
equipment for a very long time.
I'm shocked more people haven't put you on ignore and out of their life for
good. You don't deserve to be around good cultured people. Therefore, you're
off my screen and off this NG for me forever.
Enjoy your sad, lonely depressed life and remember how much better I am then
you which you're fully aware of already.
After reflecting on this for a bit I believe that Lucky just issued a cry for
help.
