The difference is often at the very limits of performance, if not the limits of credibility. And the number of features most users will never touch. For a few thousand, you can improve your radio and improve your performance by a few percent. For a few hundred you can improve your antenna and improve your performance tenfold. Talk about hyperbole... And we discuss these matters in Decibels and Microvolts not "tenfolds" nor "percents". Close in dynamic range is very important for DXing in crowded bands and there ain't an antenna made that'll improve that spec, and a they make a few that can degrade it. I like 0 Db. Across a known impedance. |
