*Hello all,
*my Tech Supplement - bought Decemeber 1995 - says + 8dBu,
*so my guess is the +11 refers to later (how much later?)
*editionsof the Supplement resp. FT1000MP models.

*> Doug, Earl or anyone:

*> I had overlooked that statement in the Technical Supplement, and
*had to wing
*> it. My Supplement is undated, but its corresponding section,
*page 3-8, says:
*>
*> "Connect an RF signal generator to the antenna jack, and inject +11dbu."
*>
*> not +8 dBu. When did they change that, and which is current?
