If you mean the DX5000, don't bother.

Re: new radio


I like them both !

I couldn't afford an optima so I got a dx5000, and I absolutely love it. Yes its not perfect, no radio is, but the small critisisms I have with it are far outweighed by the good points.
There is no denying, for the money they cannot be beaten. They sound fantastic on FM and SSB, they have more features that are actually useful than any other cheapo multiband rig, and you can program them yourself.
Whats not to like for £144 brand new ?
