[Premium-Rx] Swap WJ HF-1000A & Icom R8500 against R&S EB200?

[Ron Ott]

Kai - Yesterday I saw a car that could travel at 170 mph; my current car can travel at only 150 mph. I'm wondering whether I should sell my car and buy the other.  I decided that I would never drive any car faster than about 80 mph, so the added capability would be costly and not useful.  

The same is true for the R&S EB200.  I would pick a "high-end" premium receiver based on cost, received audio quality, and ergonomics (not necessarity in that order). I have an EK 070 in front of me as I type, and I love the audio quality and simple ergonomics (but it wasn't inexpensive).

Dear list,

currently there are some EB200s on ebay in DE.

Would I be happy if I change from my HF-1000A & R8500 to only one EB200?

The EB200 datasheet speaks about 2dBm 3rd order intercept point, my HF-1000A says 30dBm, can the EB200 value be true?

One other hints on the EB200 would also be appreciated.

Best regards & have a nice weekend!
kai
