[1000mp] SWR meter follows voice peaks even with 1:1 match

Sat, 6 Apr 2002 11:59:44 -0500

If you have never owned an MP you will be in love with the
MK V.

Having been through the learning curve with the MP and my
optional INRAD filters I found the MK V very inflexible in
both on-the-fly filter set-ups as well as the DSP settings.

I just found myself frustrated moving from the MP to the MK
V.  Now the choice of the M<K V was more or less forced on
me when my previous MP along with a pile of other stuff took
a lightning strike and at the time the MP had been
discontinued.

After having the replacement MK V for 3 months I came across
a mint MP used and picked it up and have the INRAD filters
on order.

I am NOT running down the MK V - this is just my personal
perspective on moving from an MP to a MK V.

PS The chap who purchased my MK V has a 1000D and an FT990
and just LOVES the MK V.

|Hi Paul!
|
|I've been following this thread with interest, but
|your comment really
|piqued my interest. What is it about the MK-V that
|you don't like and prefer
|the 'MP to?
|
|Thanks!
