so the wife and my family are wanting to help me purchase first HF rig...I'm torn between
1.The infamous Icom 718
2.The Yaesu ft 450
3.The bottom of the barrel Alinco Sr8t
I have read a little about built in Tuners? And Dsp (I still don't quite understand) ...MARS ECT.
In short which of these entry level rigs would be best considering I'm a late night rag chew type of operator (I won't ever contest or go out in the field) I like a very good receiver..better than output. HF GURUS HELP!
