W4ZV je veliki USA patriot in redno kritizira JA radijske naprave! Jaz se spomnem prijetnega tona Orion-I pri YT1NT. Pri K1ZZ K3 sem prvo opazil poceni VFO plasticno dugme, ki je skripalo pri obracanju. USA imajo bolj cist KV in si lahko privoscijo radijo z MF v KV obmocju. Zal je to tudi novi TS-590 ter Yaesu FT-5000. Nekaj manj TX sirokopasovnog ssuma je za pricakovati ker VFO dela na nizji frekvenci. Ozek prvi filter hitro iznici QRN. Prihodnost je itak v ADT-200A DSP.
