Correct! Look back far enough and I am sure that SSB went though the same discussion! :)

They may be really good at legacy hardware or contesting or something like that, but to SDR they are at best novices behaving with the presumption they are seasoned experts. It would be really nice if the League used reviewers who actually understood the hardware and the software and the interface between the two.<< Lee, this is a good point. Trying to do a review of SDR in the same fashion as regular rigs is like comparing apples to television sets. The only thing which comes out is that anti-SDR crowd gets fed more perceptions to justify their bias. Perhaps a preface article (or several) on SDR would help. I'm not any sort of specialist on SDR technology, but I can write and would not mind putting in the effort...with the condition that someone who IS an expert provides oversight and makes sure I don't state something incorrectly or mess up any facts.
