has anybody done a serious test of the ADT-200A transceiver yet?

When I asked this question, I sure did not expect the very educational discussion which has broken out. I'm very thankful, as a photographer who programs graphic systems for television, many good points were made which I might not have thought about on my own.

From a purely amateurish SWL point of view, I have had the chance to play with a few very expensive high end LW/MW/SW receivers, designed for use by the government, military, etc. One thing which has struck me, was the often poor IMD2 behavior of these radios, unless if they were using good, fairly small-band input filters.

Also a real world test of a radio, would also have to deal with aspects such as the user interface as well. This is one of the reasons I did not "upgrade" from the Flex-1000 to the Flex-5000. I did however "upgrade" K2 to K3, and despite whatever inherent minor weakness it might have, I'm not sorry that I did.
