CB, export, or HF... on 11 meter

[Snake Eyes]

Do you prefer CB, export, or HF rigs for 11 meter?

I, myself, have decided on an HF rig for SSB (what they're designed for), and an export for AM....!

What is everyone else's thoughts and opinions here?

depends on the hf rig, many will work just as well as a current cb or export on am if you set them up correctly. i agree 100% on the ssb, the best ssb radio (cb or export) isnt anywhere close to the ssb quality of a true hf rig. they dont have the filtering or selectability that a hf radio offers (although you definatly pay for it).

for am use i like the great quality audio of a 148, 2000, or a grant xl. they are not the loudest out there but they are among the cleaner sounding (pleasant on the ears) radios. if i were to use an export on am it would be a 148f gtl dx+ (connex 4800 old style) or a uniden hr2510. the dx is hardly usable on ssb though, as they were among the worst ssb radios you could ever buy.
