Anybody remember these two sorry a$$ radios?
Uniden's first foray into HF with the Bearcat DX-1000 was mediocre at best but Realistic was pumping out HF equipment since time began & their last effort the venerable DX-394 didn't even offer much needed squelch control, seems AOR is the only manufacturer that dare present a DC to daylight radio with a very small footprint in the AR8600MKII "basically I'm talking HF here though" anybody else here wish these two companies would delve back into the HF market now that they collectively could produce affordable high end quality HF equipment comparable to the present day oversize high end cost prohibitive HF equipment presently available now?
If nothing else AOR needs a little competition to bring the price of the AR8600MKII down.
