I need to know all the good things about the saturn and any bad things. I'm relying on all the expertise out there for some inputs. Jvergot HEADJAMMER.I'm thinking about purchasing one. Need help!
 

The saturn turbo is the model with the linear if you didn't know. Like most exports they drift a little but they are a nice radio to perform. I used a galaxy pluto for a while which should be closely related and i could never get ssb tx and rx right when dxing so look into getting the clarifier unlocked on it. It should be through hole construction so easily repaired compared to smt stuff. Any of the grant exports that it's related to were decent rigs in general. They had some problems like intermittently jumping down to 26mhz but it just comes down to whether you got a good one or not. Some hams give out about bleedover but they were far better than cybernets or yaesu ft101 series
