[1000mp] Subjective Comparison of FT 2000 to Mark V

[Mike Schatzberg]

Hello MP Fans:

Now that the FT 2000 has arrived, and some of you have purchased and operated the new radio, would anyone care to share some performance comparisons against the Mark V?

I hope to be able to obtain one soon to run a side by side comparison here, against a modified Mark V with the Inrad roofing filter installed.  I wonder if anyone has already done this.

I am particularly interested in subjective opinions as to the quietness of the new radio versus the Mark V, and how well the FT 2000 behaves when bombarded with strong adjacent channel signals during a contest.

Your replies are most appreciated.

73 and Happy DXing,

Mike
