I'm curious about your comment, Mike. What do you see as flaws in the
author's observations? It sounds to me like he's just reporting his own findings based upon the strong signal environment he lives in. Jan Alvestad had only circulated his article privately until I urged him to share it with more people via the dxing.info site. I think it is interesting and useful reading, and certainly just one of many viewpoints out there to consider in the purchase of a receiver. In general, I agree with most of his AR7030, R75 and Racal observations as I have a highly-modded R75 and a somewhat modified RA6790GM (a more recent Racal but from the same heritage as Jan's RA1772). I've also owned two AR7030s, and currently have a RX340 in the shack on loan. Nothing in Jan's article strikes me as seriously off-base.
