[OKDXA] Radio question/Survey

[Jon Greene]

Morning all,
Dual receive would be a nice feature to have.  It will definatly be on the
list of things to look for when I purchase my next rig.  I have an IC-718
that I can work split off of.  But, unfortunatly, this is a feature that I
haven't been able to use yet.  My antenna for the time being, is a 20 M
double bazooka that is run along the second floor ceiling of the house.
While that antenna will let me work some stations, I know there is alot out
there that I am missing
Jon
