[1000mp] MP -vs- D

[Cecil Acuff]

Not sure what you are talking about on the detent thing.  Mine turns 
smoothly from end to end with no detent.  No difference when pushed in.  I 
agree the ability to push it in just gets it out of the way so it's not 
accidentally turned in the heat of battle...

>> Here's a question for all you knowledgeable people, (actually
>> two questions).
>>
>> 1.  On the front panel of the Yaesu FT-1000D the knob all the
>> way at the bottom and on the right hand side of the front
>> panel, (I think it's Keying Speed, or something), not only
>> turns clock and counter-clockwise, but also pushes in and detents.
>>
>> What is the detented or not-detented effect?
>>
>> 2. When turning the radio over on its top, with the bottom
>> cover removed, the front panel facing me, on the printed
>> circuit board on the back right side, there is an in-line DIP
>> switch with four positions, and no reference either in the
>> user manual or in the comprehensive Service Manual (CD-ROM).
>>
>> What do these switches affect?
>>
>> Thanks.
