The IC-W32a is susceptible to heavy intermod. I had a pair of them before
they stopped selling them the first time.
I was in a predominantly intermod area, Phoenix, AZ. When I went out the the
mountains it would be fine. I got rid of the radios and went with pair of
IC-T7H's. They are 10 years old now and been thru hell and back, they work
just fine.
If your 530 is working don’t fix it..

Has anyone owned and used both?
I love my FT-530, but I am having a "grass is greener" moment...
For those of you have, can you comment on sensitivity? de-sense?
programming?
controls/interface? availability of headsets? power? (i.e. handheld FM
satellite usage)
Anything I neglected?
