[Elecraft] Re： OT: QST's review of the Yaesu FTDX5000MP

Hello Craig,

Is there a 'manual notch within AGC loop' in the FTDX5000?  I have not read the 
product review yet.

I trust 'manual notch within AGC loop' is a must in any high end transceiver.
 cheers,

I read and enjoyed the review.  It looks like a very good product, and will
no doubt sell well - as it should.

For me the only advantage it would have over my K3/P3 is the integrated 200
W capability and integrated power supply with > 12V power - both nice
features.  But I wouldn't consider buying one, the deal breakers being:
size/weight, audible QSK relay and single color panadapter w/o waterfall.
Not to mention the more intangibles, such as ease of firmware updates and
ability to do 80% of the servicing myself.  Close, but no cigar  ;>)
