[1000mp] Source of spares.

[Ronald Oberloh]

I agree buy a 6 meter radio if you really want 6M.  Yaesu had a few design flaws with the FT1000MP and the biggest one was the CW key click  issue.   SIgnal's generated out of the band range of the radio I can see missing but  to mess up on the signal quality of what you are generating is really bad.

<<out and produce quite strong signals on 25, 50 and 75 MHz. >>

what am I missing here ? why the talk about 6m my MP only covers up to 30Mhz.
