[1000mp] Pro III -- FT1000MP comparison

[D. J.]

I'm not sure they are talking about audio quality such as in hi-fi,  
but audio that is clear and intelligible. A final product in which  
you can year the tiny signal in band noise or a dx pileup.
Many out there found the MP/MKV to be "hissy".  In fact INRAD came  
out with a amp to help the receiver along.  I wonder if the Yaesu  
marketing did win big with their contest theme.  If you look at the  
Sherwood Engineering receiver test data you will see the MKV came out  
quite a ways down the list with the Orion on top and the 7800 and 775  
close behind the Orion, interesting?

A question for the group.  What is it about contesting that you that  
participate find interesting?  Years ago (paper log days) I came in  
SS seventh from the Central division, but since then my interest has  
waned big time.
