Well I finally got my copy today almost 1 week later even though
we live in the same state! In his review, SP7HT used 5 kHz data for
BDR and IMD, believing that ARRL's 1 kHz data on their swept graphs was
invalid. In fact, it IS valid (I confirmed this with KC1SX today) and
the results would be quite different had he used the 1 kHz data.
