[1000mp] 1000 MP Mods list

[Garry Shapiro]

I did not have two radios, so did no A/B comparison with one of each.
Therefore my judgment is subjective. That said, I really like the roofing
filter. I perceive no impact to weak-signal DXing. In fact, on 160 the
roofing filter enhances that activity. JMO.

Gary - By now you have time to try both mods - any preference now?  I do low
band dxing AND contest - what to choose?
