    Kings of the hill

    Which hf rigs had the honor of being catalogued like "top of the line" transceivers, from past decades to the present day? My first mention, from very early 80s > Collins KWM-380,Yaesu FT-ONE & Kenwood TS-930S. :D (sorry for the faults, my english isn´t too good) :P :roll:

    Since nobody believes a 148/grant will do 25+ watts...

    My PC-122XL does 23 watts (with 16.1 volts) :roll:

    Icom 718- ALC modification for AM possible?

    If you are looking for swing on AM... buy a FT-101 Yaesu. I have a FT-101B. With 5 watts of carrier, i get 50 watts PEP. :wink:

    The bigger distance that I talk with this radio without amplifier was Italy. 7000 miles from Costa Rica to Italy!! And with a ground plane antenna!! That was the last year in 27.555 mhz (USB). :wink:
