I've had mine for 10 months and love it. Have worked 35 states, 14 countries on 20 meters with up to 100 watts on a ground mounted Butternut HF9V. Very impressive rig for the $$$. Also contacts on other bands, 10, 15, 17, 40 and 80. Waiting on auto antenna tuner to do more band hopping. I would buy the same rig again.
