I also noticed the poor RX when attempting to make a sat contact with my DJ-G7T. I managed 1 contact in 3 passes. I noticed my Kenwood D7 had much better RX then the Alinco.

I have had the impression that some of the old AMSAT hands at portable 
operation have been less than impressed, and so far that has been my 
experience.  It will be interesting so see if there are any helpful firmware 
updates.  While a disappointment so far for satellite use, I do expect to 
use this as my main HT for normal operations once the English programming 
software becomes available. 

Anybody have an experiences to share, hopefully positive?
