Ok, I'll bite-what's AIP? I have a G707, and don't remember seeing
anything labeled like that.
And intermod doesn't seem to be much of a problem with it. Much better
then the 80's vintage ham stuff.
Course, intermod isn't what it used to be either. Through the late 70's,
80's, and early 90's, you couldn't drive through downtown Cleveland
without hearing intermod on 2M or UHF. With ANY radio. Not a MastrII,
not a Micor. NOTHING was immune to all those 1/3KW IMTS/paging transmitters.
