I have yet to be convinced I need a panadapter for HF

It is very useful for search and pounce operation in contests, and for finding a slot to call CQ. It is also useful for understanding the shape of a DX pileup.

I find that it helps build a mental picture of the band that I was never able to do simply by listening. Having owned one together with the VGA adapter, I would be very reluctant to go back to ears only operating on any band.
