The biggest problem is with the D7's packet modem, IMHO.  I don't think it
decodes packets that well if there is any noise on them.  I see packets that
my KPC-3 decodes just fine that my D7A won't.  The KPC-3 can decode a packet
practically at the noise floor.  The D7 won't decode some packets that are
full scale.  It's always been a complaint of mine with the D7 and D700
modems.  I just don't think they are all that good.
