I bought mine around the same time (Nov. 2023). ?I do not plan to buy any other HF transceiver, until this one no longer works. ?By then, maybe another company will offer an all-HF-band small unit, such as the X6100 in size and features, with a removable/changeable battery, good ATU, internal microphone, and internal speaker, without breaking the bank.
Oleg, thank you for all your hard work.
