I've been flying with one of these (Dittel KRT2) for the last year and
like it a lot, especially its ability to listen on two frequencies.
Several have appeared in gliders at my club: I've heard no complaints.

The worst I can say about them is that entering frequency names is
somewhat slow and fiddly and, since its a computer-based radio I'd gladly
have paid a bit more for one with an SD card slot if that had been an
option: typing names and frequencies into a file on the card and then
stuffing it into the slot would be a lot quicker and easier as well as
providing a nice backup for the list.

If anybody from Dittel is reading this, there's a free suggestion for you
(an upgrade would be nice, hint hint).
