[GCARC] Is ICON-7300 a good radio to use with MAC?

[Kenneth Bozarth]

I have a 7300 and like it a lot. The MK2 is out with some desireable new
features so consider one. My opinion of Flex, or any other SDR rig is that
they are too subject to computer glitches. Stick with a real radio. You
need to know that the 7300 and the 7610 have some SDR characteristics such
as poor out of band strong signal rejection, i.e. no RX preselector. They
would nit work well on FD.
