Ken - I'm not Guy, but I hope for a promotion some day. As I hear it, there's only 1 mod for the HF+ and it is for improved LW sensitivity. It doesn't affect MW. Chuck From: IRCA on behalf of ken brookner Sent: Sunday, September 2, 2018 6:46 PM To:

Hi Chuck, Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. You've hit the nail on your head in your RSPduo assessment! Performance-wise I find it's NOT in the ballpark of the "upper tier" of consumer SDRs. The promised Holy Grail feature of software phasing remains for developers to decide if the
