I bought into the radio BS with the 1.41 radio update on my 6700. Then shortly after that update, my 6700 that was working perfectly went to crap and I went through two refurbs within 2 weeks that had radio issues as well.

I'm not saying the two are 100% linked but I find it an interesting coincidence either way. Now I'm getting a Mogul and I'm not TOUCHING the radio on it. I'll be damned if I'm going to be down a phone in a pinch again.
thats completely false, yes the antenna is the same. the software/firmware of the radio can increase its sensitivity without increasing power and thus providing reception
