The only quirky thing is the tuning. Once you are used to it all is fine. It puts out over 5 watts. It is sensitive and selective enought for 40 meter conditions. The radio is a bear to build but they have great instructions. It is not for a rank beginner. It covers a full 150 Hz of the 40 meter band. The qsk is nice and so is the side tone. The knob tunes in 1 kh stepps and when you push it in it now tunes in 100 hz stepps. You use the rit if people are not right on in the tuning process. The case is a BRUTE and you could run over it with a car and not damadge it. I like it! It is on the expensive side but all quality inside. No drift or parasitics.
