Anyone interested in having a look at a side by side comparison
between the
venerable Drake R8B and Icom's latest digital transceiver offering
the 756
PRO III can do so at
http://www.dxing.info/equipment/icom_ic756_plimmer.dx
The Icom has some impressive features for a SW DXer with performance
to
match

Interesting article, but man, "venerable Drake R8B"??
When I think "venerable", I think a Hallicrafters
SX-100 or a Hammarlund HQ-180AC.

I must be getting old.
