Well..I use to have two of the 148's (philippines made) with the "expo kits" for 23 yrs and then once I got into the exports, the 148's went down the road and I never looked back.


So now for the last 16 yrs it's been the RCI's for me and I have stayed with the 2950's & 2970dx models only. Right now I am using a 6 yr old 2970dx doing 100 watts and it cost me only $250. I have been talking to many many stations around the world with it and it has served me well.


Also, with this radio and my beam I don't need to run an amp..........


Just my 3 cents.
