I wish the transmitted noise was presented more like a proof of performance.

One line for the FCC requirement, then a broad line showing the curves of the three best rigs tested so far.

That would give a clear view of whether this transmitter was just barely good enough or among the best.

QST really should reprint the entire review with an explanation of why it is doing that. Maybe they need to reassess (yet again) the quality control in their editorial process.
