BG5LU Are there any other "unlimited pad" options that might be more suitable?
Everyone knows that "infinite delay" is the issue, so where does this leave us? Using DX10 for competition is far too weak. Look into FlexRadio and Elecraft. Also, the new Icom IC-7760 is a good option for remote operation. These are all high-end devices, so shouldn't their amplifiers be capable of delivering at least 1000W? Don't go with Chinese brands; FlexRadio's Power Genius XL is a good alternative. For VHF and satellite use, consider the IC-9700. As for the IC-7851, FTDX101MP, Expert M1, and SPE/ACOM amplifiers, choose based on your needs. There are different devices for different purposes.
