Be careful......... Because the following is very true: Manufacturers like Berg and JR probably don't like to label their RXs as single-conversion because most people assume it's inferior. JR, Berg, and even Hitec make full range RXs that are single conversion,

And at least in the case of JR RX's -ALL- of the JR "long range" receivers ARE single conversion.

They just use a different filtering scheme that seems effective.

JR doesn't call the R6UL ( Micro ) receiver single conversion either, but I've found that it is most prone to problems at our field...

Typical obfuscation... it's hard as a buyer at times to figure out exactly what we are getting.



Absolutely !

And what screws up lots of our judgements being universally applicable, are things like how the JR R610UL works at other fields. It's almost 100% of the RXs you see at some glider fields because it's long range performance thumps the competition and they aren't seeing the kind of interference your field must be seeing. I've got them in all my gliders and not even a hint of problems. http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products...ID=JRPR610UL**

BTW, good to see someone FINALLY understand the complexity of my point. thanks
