Right!
They could have gotten rid of the RF Gain knob and put it into the menu as 'RF Attenuation'.

Perhaps the RF Gain knob can be used as a clarifier if it has the correct resistance. Doubtful.

At least they got the SSB radios going again.

THNX, Booty . . .
 
The specs I read had a "Delta Tune" listed as a feature.I'm assuming they meant clarifier . like they called the frequency display a frequency counter.

Nice. No vfo though. Channels have to be fixed so it will be a freq counter.

Price will drop within 6 months of it hitting the market. I probably won't be smart or patient enough to wait since I like the looks so much.

I will be one of the idiots that will snap one up as soon as it comes available. :D
 
it will be interesting to see how it compares to the old grants and the newer galaxies for sure . :w00t:
