I would certainly have to agree.  And I have driven plenty of hight performance cars, and no longer own any buggies  :-)

I use an SE-3 (version III upgraded to a IV) with an R-390, 390A, SP-600, and recently an HQ-140X.  It works just fine.  Not sure what the bug in Don's ar*e is here, but either his unit was defective, or ... (comments deleted in the interest of list harmony).  If that makes me just another stupid and ignorant  luddite, so be it :-)

Unlesss you have it in a glass greenhouse or an unheated garage in International Falls, Minnesota in winter there should be any drift problem. I sed one with a Drake R-7A which is in itself drifty. A R-390a which drifted maybe 200 hz on a bad day. The last was a SP-600 which drifted 1-2 khz depending which band it was on. The SE-3 that Don has has to have a faulty component.
