Hi, I use a Kenwood F7E (2m/70cm with wideband all-mode receive, nice to monitor HF) and it works like a charm, both on the duck (I don't use the Kenwood duck, but, rather, a Diamond SRH-999 mini-duck) as well as on external ants through SMA.
Of all my handies (yes, I do have a few), I still like the F7 the most.

This is interesting Bob. I've read similar about the TH-F6A, which has kept me from buying it, but I hadn't read that about the VX-6R before. Too bad the fuse in the F6A is an smt fuse on the board.
