[Kenwood] Question regarding TS450 & DSP-100

[David VE3VID]

Hi guys........I agree with Greg about the performance of the DSP-100.  The cost of these items used, +10yrs since production ended, is still around $500.  I'm not familiar with the "W2IHY EQPlus" but if it provides A/D/A compression to your audio signal, the DSP-100 wont do much more.
