[Kenwood] DSP filters in the TS2000

[Scott Manthe]

John,

The ARRL review does mention that the DSP filters in the "DSP Functions" 
section of the review.

You'll find no bigger fan of the TS-2000 than I, but it just doesn't have as 
good a receiver as the Icom 756Pro. The Pro's receiver is quieter and has 
far more effective filtering on SSB. In my experience, the CW filters are 
are about equal. The TS-2000's adjustable noise blanker works better than 
the 756Pro's noise blanker.

I've owned three TS-2000s and I've always liked it as an all-in-one rig, but 
I've found that I like the Pro's RX better. Depending on how you're going to 
use your rig, you might find that the extra RX performance isn't as 
important to you. I know you've had a TS-2000 yourself, so you know what to 
expect from it.

73,
Scott, N9AA
