[1000mp] mk v field & Icoms.

[D. J.]

I have one of the last 50 Burghardts sold, SN 26xx and I don't hear any 
spur when split and on ten meters.  40 WPM limit is no problem with me.

I checked it by listening on 28.4 with my MKV and transmitting on 28.7 
with the 775 in split and main rec on 28.4.  My MKV was on a doublet 
the 775 was on a yagi.  Is this the correct way to tell if there is a 
spur?  I heard nothing with that setup.
