I am envious that you have two FT-1000D's.  My advice, after speaking =
with several hams who have Marks, keep your FT-1000D.  Even Yaesu techs =
say that the D is absolutely the BEST radio they've ever made.

+AHw- Hello gang...
+AHw-=20
+AHw-   Looking for some opinions.
+AHw-=20
+AHw-   A (Ham) friend of mine mentioned that he would like to trade his
+AHw- fairly new FT-1000MP Mark V for one (I have two) of my =
FT1000D+IBk-s.
+AHw-=20
+AHw-   I like my FT-1000D rigs (among other reasons) primarily because
+AHw- they are +IBw-all in one box+IB0-. The Mark V is three separate =
pieces,
+AHw- but it a more modern radio, of course.

+AHw-   I am kind of +IBw-on the fence+IB0- decision-wise.
+AHw-=20
+AHw-   What would you guys do???
+AHw-=20
+AHw-   TIA for the input+ICY-.
