[Elecraft] Receivers

[Jerry W. O'Dell]

You know, I'm a ragchewer, and I just like to talk to people.

Yet I hear all manner of discussion about super-low noise
figures and suchlike, and people saying that their 775 is
better than their ProII or vice versa.

I would submit:

(1) Without lab equipment, you simply can say such things.

(2) Maybe you can't say it even with the good stuff. As I recall
antenna noise is the ruling factor below somewhere about 21 mhz.

Personally, give me the 20 over S9 signal any day! I am so old
that just S9 will do!

No offense, and not aimed at anyone. But if you tell me that your
781 is more sensitive than your FT1000D, in my book, you'd better
have a dandy lab!
