[ICOM] QST Prod Rev Expanded Reports: a proposal

[David J. Ring, Jr.]

Oh, I did find some ratings and comparisons to the ICOM IC-756PRO2 (and 
other) receivers.

I would pretty much agree with this list, although I can mention some other 
receivers that I would guess gave the R390 (one of the top receivers) a go 
for the money (or glory!).

I really was surprised at how well the ICOM IC-775 did - I've never had the 
pleasure of using one of these, but from this data, I am going to search one 
out.

Take a look - it is great reading.  At least the "stock" Drake R4C is no 
match for the ICOM IC-756PRO2, but the R4C with very narrow roofing filters 
work very well under crowded band conditions.

Really fun reading - I wish there was more of this stuff.

Just please for heaven's sake pay attention to what Rob Sherwood has
told you.  At the moment, your reciver measures are nearly worthless.
