[GreenKeys] HAL ST-8000 and Dovetron MPC-1000R

[Jeffrey Golas]

I have the Dovetron and love it, kinda. Mine doesnt have the TRS board which adds most features unfortunately. That said this has a LOT of features. The nicest part is being able to manually set receive frequencies. The downside to that is realizing your transmit frequencies are fixed (ish) and wont match the recieve frequencies unless you locally loop it to calibrate the two.

That said not sure how much that one is but yeah spending more than 2 bills on these is up there.
