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

[Johnny Siu]

Hi John,

Excessive  birdies in K3 will consume a lot of the DSP power in eliminating 
them.  I would think the DSP power should be used / reserved for other 
meaningful radio functions.
 cheers,

One of my pet peeves of the K3 is the notch is not within the agc loop and
yes I know it's not good for IMD but so what. It's not engaged all the time.
The other is excessive birdies which the 5000 does not hardly have any.
