I have seen at least two other serious DXers in Europe who did evaluations
of the Ten Tec RX-340 comment that it does not cut the cake when things get
serious.


Okay, fine, but what do "come up with the cookies" and "cut the cake"
*mean*? What, specifically, did they find that fell flat? There are
things I can think of that it could do better, but they fall into the
"annoyance" range rather than the "just not worth it" range.
