I have been running my new acquired FT100D in the 160 contest this weekend. It is actually the third FT100D I have owned in my ham career, and I am still impressed with this radio. No signs of receiver overloading during the 160 contest, although my antenna isn't anything to write home about on that band. Still, I am seeing S9 +20 signals, which means really loud on the FT100D s meter.
It is still funny to be running the top band on such a little rig.
This may not be a rig for the top level contester, but it is definitely a contesting rig for the rest of us. Anyone else fell this way about the FT100D also?
