I hate to agree but that SGC tranciever reminds me of my '67 Jag XKE.
When it was running it ran like a bat out of H@*l. When it was running.
Somehow I think SGC must have hired some folks from Lucas. :-)

Ah ha, you know about Sir Lucas, The Prince of Darkness. When I put our
ham radio on the boat, right after the 1st generation IC-706 came out, I
ordered the
SGC 230 Tuner. It lasted about one year and it was so crudded up that I
scrapped it
and replaced it with an AH-4 and in 6 years or so, it has worked as
advertised. Both
tuners were mounted in the same place on the pushpit. If SGC ever needs a
spokes
person, I would at the bottom of the list.
