[1000mp] New MARK-V

Sun, 16 Mar 2003 22:09:53 +0200

Hi Dennis
I am also a newcomer to FT-1000 and have a MP since Dec last.  Interesting
to note that you have or had a TS-2000.  How does the MARK-V compare to the
2000on receive - - - especially weak signals ?  I am a 99% CW operator and
must say the MP is great.  I also have a TS-930 which is a very fine rig,
but it lacks the refinement of the MP especially the second RX is
unbelievable.
