R8B is a big dissapointment too....as with anything made by DRAKE

Yeah right. That's why it was the top rated receiver for so many years.
You own one?

I have to admit, the R8 series just screamed CHEAP everytime I played
with one. It was a decent enough receiver, but I never really had the
desire to buy one. An R7/a was miles beyond an R8X, IMO.
