I am having a heck of a time choosing between these three rigs. Any
personal experiences or opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Yaesu FT-920 (incl YF116A & FM-1)
Kenwood TS-570S (incl YK-88SN-1 SSB filter)
Icom IC-746 Pro (no addons)

I am looking for reliability vs bells and whistles.....

Thanks in advance.....

filtering! By FAR the best of the 3 radios!

The FT-920 is the quietest rig I have ever owned. Very popular on 6 meters
too. You can find one used for $750 to 900 too.

Everything's relative. I thought so too, until I upgrade to an Icom 756 Pro

I think the Icom may have better numbers, however based on eHam
several users reported reliability issues. Perhaps they have since
ironed out the bugs??

I currently run the FT920. Quietest receiver I have ever heard, next to my
TS850S.
