For a company that professes to be the "Authority On Radio", they could have done a little better job stacking and displaying their radios. (From their "What's New" page dated 9-20-2022.) Apparently, they've come up with a new slant on configuring your shack!!! I wonder if a neck-brace and ligament are included in the package ?!?

The software is as usual for AOR, quirky but functional. Improved memory and search bank programming for my 5700D, so I am happy about that. The photo is awful, Three 5700D's slapped together for a quick photo, yikes.......Would it kill AOR to rack mount these babies for the photo shoot?

As the OP, I agree that everyone is entitled to their opinions of AOR. I happen to think they make good products and I own several DV1 receivers. The point of my post was not to discredit their product, but rather their choice of absurd aesthetics in displaying what are some of the best (IMHO) consumer-grade receivers in the world in such a clumsy and cavalier fashion as to give such a poor impression as to the way they treat some of their flagship products. There was certainly enough room to stack them horizontally and in a much more professional fashion. 'Nuf said. I think the thread can be closed.

AOR has made some great receiver/scanners, many of which have saved lives when used for direction finding and military/search and rescue applications. Although, that sideways stacking would mess with my OCD for sure.
