I usually don't reply to many emails here, but I feel\n this was necessary. I bare to disagree with you Alan. If I would have known\n the rig had a birdie right on the downlink frequency of two of the most \npopular\n fm birds, I would not have purchased the rig years ago. Making a\n statement of a \"few quirks\" does not give a person a fair assessment of the\n rig. I just feel it is a very important fact.\n\n\n\n Angelo / N5UXT\n\n\n> ----- Original Message ----- \n> From: \"Alan\" <[email protected]>\n> To: \"'Angelo Glorioso'\" <[email protected]>\n> Sent: Friday, August 02, 2013 2:14 PM\n> Subject: RE: [amsat-bb] Re: Newbie needs advice on which transceiver to \n> get\n>\n>\n>> Angelo,\n>>\n>>>>rig it does have a few quirks.\n>>\n>> There was no need to bury him with details.\n>>\n>> Alan\n>> WA4SCA\n>>\n>>\n>> -----Original Message-----\n>> From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On \n>> Behalf Of Angelo Glorioso\n>> Sent: Friday, August 02, 2013 7:34 AM\n>> To: [email protected]\n>> Subject: [amsat-bb] Re: Newbie needs advice on which transceiver to get\n>>\n>> Hi Oscar and Alan,\n>>\n>> Please be aware of the birdie right on the downlink of SO50.
