Why I like my FlexRadio

Hi,
Pretty often we focus on negative things and we forgot what is actually good and why. Seen this once again in my life and also periodically when viewing this forum. Most often we (me of course included) ask and seek here support for problematic situations, when we have problem using our loved Flex radios or its accessories and softwares. If you read all the post which are found here at the FlexRadio community you will get an impression that FlexRadios totally sucks. Nothing but problems, which is not true. It is just how human mind works, we tend to get fixed to things which needs improvements.
Long story short my point is, let's have a new discussion which is focused on good things and good things only. Please contribute here your positive user experiences and explain why you like your FlexRadio and how you make your user experience even more delightful.
I start. I like especially the ease of use of the 8600M model. You can easily find what you are looking for thanks to "less knobs and more menus" approach. Large screen is beautiful and finding the signals is straight forward. I love to use the profiles and how it makes the remote use easier. I have different profiles for my iPhone and my radio. Full duplex! I like to monitor different bands when working one and FDX just makes all this much more efficient. There are many other good things these as well, just a few pointers which came to my mind first.
Please share your positive user experiences here thank you.
P.S Couldn't find category for general user experiences, but mods can move this to more suitable location if necessary.
Greetings from Finland.

For 7+ years, my Flex radio (now an 8600M) has continued to amaze me on a daily basis. When I began in ham radio with a Heathkit novice station 60 years ago, I could not begin to imagine the features and capabilities of my Flex transceiver.
