So you're out shopping for a new ham radio, or maybe you're just perusing reviews in the latest issue of QST or Sherwood Engineering's test summary page, and there's all these crazy numbers. You may even remember some of them from studying for your ham exams, but but... several years on, who remembers trivia you've never had to use?
Well, you're in luck here, because in a recent edition of the Ham Radio Workbench Podcast, Eric Swartz from Elecraft walks us through these figures, discusses what they mean, which ones are important (and which ones can largely be ignored), how they affect receiver performance – the whole picture, squarely in a real-world context. This portion starts about 1:25 into the podcast, so either be prepared to listen for a while or to skip ahead to the main part.
