Why someone would buy the crap R75 instead is a mystery.

Are you trolling?

Nope.


You must be. I've had excellent results with the R75 and quite modest
antennas on a small lot in one of the most RFI- and QRM-polluted
environments I can imagine short of the inside of an electronics
factory. The radio is sensitive, selective, not prone to images, and
delivers under less-than-optimum circumstances.

My experience with it is just great, and I have no hesitation in
recommending it as a good $1k choice.

Well, Bruce I'm not. Like I previously posted the fall back position for
the R75 argument has been the performance you get for the price. You
could get a better radio before but it always cost more money. The R75
tradeoff being poor AGC and sync that doesn't work unless you pay even
more money, ship it to someone that will modify it. Well, now you can
get more performance for less.
