Shiny! DC-to-daylight, lots of features. Dual this, multiple that,
passband t'other, panadaptor displays. It's enough to overflow my
PC's glitz buffer.

Who knows, it may even be as sensitive as my FRG-100 in the HF bands.
I don't expect it to be as sensitive as my R-390, but it does cover a
lot more territory.

I don't think sensitivity is much of an issue especially on HF. However,
one thing that caught my eye was the IP 3. It was in the 'watts' range.
Useful for the multi op contesters, I'm sure. I also here the simulated
meters are pretty neat.
