Peter, you and Dave are both right. Icom has a bunch of trouble. the R75
no longer has a DSP board because of this. at this date i don't believe
they have a replacement yet. so, where do we go from here? i think in
a few years the newer receivers will mostly be SDR. which, maybe down
the road, but as of today, is not a real receiver to me. BTW, yes Dave,
i know some of the high buck jobs are mostly computer inside.

My Ten-Tec SDR feels very old school analog.

I think I'm going to build me a K2.

There are lots of great receivers. Most have transmitters associated
with them.
