It's worth bearing in mind (and Rob is always upfront about this)
- his ranking is based on only one performance criteria:? close-in
dynamic range.?? Because to him, as a contester, that's the most
important receiver performance factor - the ability to copy a
desired signal in the presence of other strong signals very
nearby.?? It's also pretty meaningless to try to rank receiver
performance by lots of other possible criteria because there would
be little discernible difference.????
Rob always points out that there are a number of other factors to
select the "best radio" for any particular purpose.?? Which just
underscores your point - the best radio for a given purpose is the
one that works for you, and as he says "Don¡¯t
select a new radio just from my chart ! "
