[1000mp] While tuningup/down the band hearing blobsFT1000MP Mark V Field

[Peter Connors]

Listening very hard while connected to a dummy load I can just hear the 
receiver mute very briefly when tuning through this 10Hz frequency step 
- but this is completely swamped by 20m band noise.

It's more like a click, and is only heard as you tune across the frequency - I don't believe there is any kind of a stead-state hum, hiss or birdie.  IIRC, it is a synthesizer artifact, and is sufficiently unobtrusive that Yaesu left it alone.  Certainly, I'm not conscious of it unless I'm actively looking for it.  There is one at 14.008.31 USB.
