If you do get one, I'd suggest a BCB filter, FM trap, and a preselector. It
is a VERY sensitive radio with not a lot of dynamic range. Using the ATT
ocassionally helps also. With the proper external tools in place, it does
just fine on H.F....

I've gone through the reviews and find it confusing. I don't think I've
ever seen a radio with such polarized reviews. People seem to think
they're great or that they're junk.

The inadequate Chinese power supply seems to be one of the biggest
concerns, as version 1.7 firmware has apparently fixed a lot of the
problems.

The extreme width of the coverage makes this an appealing set. I will do
more research.
