Whether you can do something with less capable equipment that someone
else uses more sophisticated gear to do isn't the point. The point is
that two receivers are better than one. Personally, I could deal with
split pileups with a single receiver (as I did for many years) but I
could not have diversity reception without them. And I would NEVER want
to give that up.

My K3S has only one receiver. The K3 before that had only one receiver.
The TS-870 before that had only one receiver. The Drake TR-7 before
that had only one receiver. The Henry Tempo-One before that had only
one receiver. The Collins KWM-1 before that had only one receiver and
everything before that was a separate RX/TX. And yet, I'm on the DXCC
Honor Roll, have CW, Phone, RTTY and 9-band DXCCs all from within a 10
mile circle in Tucson running no more than 500W to wires or a triband
Yagi at 50 feet. Everybody knows you can't do this without two receivers.

What's the matter with the '890?
Not a lot.
It got a glowing review from Rob Sherwood today at Contest University.
But it's only one RX.
