[1000mp] tip: switching in extra band filters for reception

Sat, 27 Apr 2002 12:20:57 +0000

I've been using this setup for several years. Someone posted this
on the reflector a few years ago. I had an ANC-4 but my W1FB homebrew
"QRN squasher" seems to me to be superior.
The 12 volt power from the MP such low power that it is almost useless.
Don't know why Yaesu didn't make this a bit heftier.
