The filter selections is a lot easier and one can change selections from
the front panel without auxiliary programs.
If I needed 200 watts I would look for a late model FT1000D - not a Mark
V."

Ditto. The original MP is the better radio for the CW operator for the
filter selection reason. Most of the enhancements on the MkV & Field are
designed for the SSB operator, while they took away this important
feature for the CW operator.
I can easily select my 500/500, 250/250 and 250/125 Hz filters (or any
combination thereof) on the fly from the front panel of my MP.
