When to upgrade to a tabletop such as the Palstar, Yaesu 100, Icom IC-
R75 etc? When you can actually connect a decent antenna and when you
want faultless sound from far distant stations. I see a lot of fella's
wasting their money on expensive table tops who live in apartments =
really a waste of money. A decent portable such as the Redsun RP2100/
Kaito KA2100/CC Crane SW will do just as well.

Now let's not get to excited here. A table top can be well worth the
money for people that live in apartments and other radio challenging
abodes. It just takes a little more knowledge and proper application of
antennas. Apparently people that read this news group don't pay very
good attention to what I have written or are not very good
experimenters if they agree with your sentiments.
