Regarding the "price increase" on the Mark V Field. My shipping invoice shows the actual price as $2399.99 minus a $400 Yaesu coupon with a final price of $1999.99. It appears that the only price change is now the lack of a discount coupon. Still debating the INRAD mod. I did have it in my 1000mp but didn't see that much of an improvement when listening with my old ears :>) 73, Mac, KR0I
