Sorry for posting the same thing twice. I didn't see my post show up for several days, so thought it was lost.
Apologies.

Hi folks.
I already have enough HT's here... Kenwood TH-D74A, Yaesu FT-70DR, and a TYT MD-UV380 UHF (for DMR). But, I picked all of those up before I started hearing people talk about the FT-60R, always in glowing terms, and often using the phrase "modern classic". "They won't make a handheld like this in a long time"...
I realize it's a basic radio compared to many others on the market, but to be honest, I don't need GPS, Bluetooth, APRS or a touch screen. How is the FT-60R's receiver performance? All other things being equal, would I notice more sensitivity, better rejection etc. than my Kenwood or newer Yaesu? Have any of you compared the receiver to others on weak signals?
With supplies of new ones dwinling fast or possibly all gone, should I pick one of these up? Why/why not?
Thanks
Chris
