Yes APF came out reel good, very well done! Don´t even know if
it was this good on the FT-1000D, at least not on the units I
did own.

Now if only AM RX was to be fixed I would be happy, as it is
right now AM (not sync AM) RX is more or less useless. It "got
broken" in the DSP code way back. I have written about this
problem before and I´m not going to repeat myself any further.
