Maybe on AM some do, but for SSB there isn't an export that will contend with a real HF radio. Even the kenwood ts480hx will do 200+ watts on AM and they don't sound bad. And like I said, on SSB they are the shizz. That is what most HF radios are designed for is SSB. Read up some more on HF radios and how to set them up and then they don't sound so crappy on AM either. My Icom 746 sounds just fine on AM as long as I don't crank the power wide open and the mic gain and so forth. Most of the time user error plays a big part in how people sound, even on expensive radios!!!
