[1000mp] Pro III -- FT1000MP comparison

[Joe Subich, W4TV]

The "Dual watch" feature is much less effective than the dual
receive in the Mark V.  Dual watch mixes the signals while dual
receive - even in the Mark V - keeps the signals completely
separate.  With dual receive it is possible to feed two different
RTTY demods and copy two signals (for example, DX station and
the split pile-up).  It is also possible to use spatial separation
(left/right ear) to listen to two voice or CW signals at the same
time.  None of that is possible with "dual watch"
