[Elecraft] OT: QST's review of the Yaesu FTDX5000MP

[Wes Stewart]

There is a serious misconception by some true believers that Elecraft "invented" down-conversion (or at least conversion) to an i-f in the 8 to 9 MHz range.

Nothing could be further from the truth, and I know that the folks at Elecraft would never claim as much.  I had a Henry Radio Tempo-1 (Yaesu FT-200) back when radios warmed up the shack.  It was a 9 MHz i-f transceiver.
