[Kenwood] TS2000 on VHF and UHF

[Massimo Corinaldesi]

The recovered audio is clearer, the hiss span on low audio frequencies 
on TS2000 so disturbing the received audio, while the hiss is 
high-frequency on TS480, so the hear can discriminate more easily. Yes 
You can play with the frequency response on the 2000, but it's not easy 
and that shaping affect both noise and modulation. I think the 480 dsp 
is superior than the 2000 dsp.
I think that behaviour is due to the 2-conversions rather than 
4-conversion method. The more, the quartz filter of the 480 is better 
"shaped" than the ceramic filters of the 2000.
I cannot say nothing about high-level-signals behaviour.
On my website www.ziomassimo.it I described some measurements about 
480/2000 receiving comprison but, halas, in italian.
