Now i hv a heavily modded kenwood r1000 with homebrew sam det and a
new icom r75 with kiwa mods, and now i begin to understand what drives
all these discussions and loyalties about radios.
The r1000 is a very nice little radio, especially with the mods...the
r75 on the other hand is almost uncontrollable with more sensitivity
than is good for it. the r1000 is very nice to listen to, the r75
sucks without a pair of sony headphones. but the ability to pull sta
out of indiscernable muck is great...the r75 has more buttons, knobs,
etc to play with to get there. and you mean to tell me that the more
expensive radios (drake r8b, etc.( are even better than this? holy
****.....i need more money

LOL! I know, I had to get a second job years ago just to afford myself.
