    Seriously, other than not liking Yaesu's menu system very much, I'm pretty agnostic when it comes to platform. And I never used even half the capabilities of my IC-746PRO.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    I'm very anti-touch screen on ham radios, but other than that, meh.

    About to pull the trigger on the KX3, so, yeah...

    The first ham radio I ever used was a Scout.

    I have had many radios over the years. Oldest: 1923 Kennedy 311 one tube reg. and up to my Yaesu ft-100d. I could find no diff between a Collins 75-a4 and my Icom 720a on receive. Even my National NC 100X/HRO 60 and 500 were not any better. You did need to know how to use them right but they worked as well as any. Transmitter? CE-100V with the 600L works as well as my Hallicrafters HT-32a and 33 set-up.
    I thought religions were prophet based organizations.

    Cool. I have a single tube Crosley Pup running a UX-201A, from around the same year.
