Ooooo, the 7300 is a nice rig. I’ve been eyeballing picking up that. Really like everything I’ve seen about it up to now. How do you like it?
I like it. I can’t say its performance is way beyond the other two rigs I’ve had, a yaesu 1200 and 857. Receive is good, it’s pretty intuitive, and having the live waterfall makes it easier to see how the bands are doing and go where the action is (or isn’t).

So far I’ve liked the initiative menus and the SDR waterfall looks like a nice plus. From what I’ve seen it would be really intuitive for the kids to learn too. I might have to pick one up
