I've been trying to convince people not to buy any high power "10 meter" radios because, they literally have the worst transistor amplifiers EVER produced. The quality and reliability has never been so low. Even the very first transistor amps produced in the 1970's, were far better than what they sell for this band today. The more of these they can sell, the less the chances are that we will ever see them revert back to using real RF transistors. The market and demand for that has been removed by how easily these radios sell for a ridiculously high price.
