They make cool looking front panels. Very basic. Almost like a student
radio.

Get a netbook and a USB dongle sound card and a wideband black box
running some kind of SDR. You can use any skin you like.

And it still wouldn't be half as pleasant to use as the most un-
ergonomic radio JRC ever made. Nothing compares, IMHO to the layout and
feel of JRC stuff..

I suppose. I go for performance these days, the ionosphere being what it
is. I have left a trail of good feeling radios too heavy or too bulky to
pack. If I was buying a radio for cool knobs I'd probably go for a 51s-1.
Nobody around here has more experience on big knob Collins **** than I
do. I got a lot of that out of my system as a radio teen.

I sure as hell am not going to spend $1,900 on a radio without a USB or a
232 port.

Rickmers, did your dongle get cut off?

Sure seems like it, as you are a dumbass 'tard girl!

It is overpriced, but it's a great radio.
