I have to agree with Garey about allowing Sherwood to stay and let those individuals who don't want to hear it filter it out themselves. There are those that want everything Drake to remain 100% stock and any mod or chance is bad. I guess that would leave out the AC-4R, or any other upgrades to our aging Drake gear. No more INRAD filters and if you can't find a stock factory Drake filter to replace a bad one, too bad. I don't own any Drake 7 gear and most likely won't, it doesn't interest me. When I get a post about the 7 gear I just Delete the posts, no big deal. Let the readers decide what they want to read and what they don't.
