I am amazed that no one mentioned
Signal/One CX-7 A & B. What a marvelous radio that had all the bells
and whistles for its time. Imagine a nixie tube digital
read-out…fantastic speech processor ( when adjusted correctly) and all
solid state except for the final in the 70’s. 73 de Greg-N4CC
It depends on your perspective. This is my 50th ham yr. & my
2 wk. anniverary with the K3. It's the best receiver I've used. I think
as the Mustang car changed that world the TS 520 & the FT 101 did theirs.
The 1st average guy transceivers that ran forever & were affordable. The
Collins line was great but way beyond the average hams budget. The Drake twins
& TR4 were at the top of that class too. For the roll your own
guys Heath changed everything. There are thousands of SB200s & SB220s still
plowing the way today. I think the K3 & Elecraft will be game
changers too.It's history is to be written yet. The test of time is the
final judge.
