I'd stop short of a lot of truth...
It really does have to be viewed on a case by case, radio by radio basis.
Kenwoods almost universally sound great. Some modification to 11m is straight forward and others nearly destroy the radio just to get it on 11m. Then again it depends on if the modification is done by a competent individual or a hack with secret CB opened to the appropriate page.
I've put 148GTL's on 10m. I defy anyone to tell the difference between them and a HF radio.
A correctly adjusted Ft-101E is just another radio on 11m
There really is no blanket statement that covers all the possibilities. The proof is in ineligibility, spectral purity, and harmonic suppression, as it is in any radio. All else is rhetoric for keyboard warriors and the unwashed masses.
