[NLRS] HR-2510 vs HR-2600

[Ross Vaagen]

One other point of interest in the uniden radios is the rx filter.

The HTX 100, has a narrower ssb filter in it (about 3 kc wide), and the 2510
is is more like 5 ir 6 kc wide. I would believe they did that to make am and
fm useable.
SSB is more congested in crowded conditions with the 2510, and i expect the
2600 is the same.

Some other points that I noticed.
I read that the filter from the HTX would interchange with the other 2
radios.
The HTX has a center detent on the rit knob where the 2510 doesn't, harder
to find center in the dark.
I imagine both can be modified to change the rit knob to track on tx also if
needed.
I also remember the HTX knob pullingout, but i forget what function that
did.

Hope that helps a little in making a decision.
