Hi John & Everyone;
I agree with John completely about the F6.
Its just a great radio.
I like the part in the software that only lets you load the memories so that
if you have something stored in VFO, you won't disturb it.
But, I could use the radio without the software.
For that matter, most of the KENWOOD radios are usable without the software.
