If you'll actually read what I put, me, personally, I preferred the THF-6A 
because, 1 I like the low beep for the default settings. and 2, the big 
thing was, if you're on the very outer fringes of a repeater with the T-90A, 
the F6A, no matter what antenna, will be almost full quieting. I found the 
F6A gets out a lot better especially after a couple hours on the battery, I 
found time and time again, the F6A gets out a lot better than the T90A.  The 
T90a had the edge in out of band receive. From the real accessibility front, 
I can't say 1 is better than the other after hours and hours with them and 
many others.
