Thanks to Tex' glowing report on the 2014/15/16---I purchased a 2014 via ARF and received it Saturday.
Plugged her in tonight and immediately I was hearing stations I don't hear on my other AA5 sets such as Kansas City (I'm in Minneapolis).
I've not had time to DX with it much, but I'm hearing an old familiar sound: two or more nighttime power only stations on same freq from out of state.

Tell me how you want detector output measured and perhaps others here can offer some comparisons.
Out of room, still dragging 'em home
