Apologies, but I really should have qualified this statement. I've posted
before about my own comparisons that showed the Orion gives up nothing to the
FT-1000D in this regard. The Orion is as good as the competition, I just wish
it were as superior in this respect as it is in close-in selectivity/IM
immunity. I've yet to see dsp of any flavor by any manufacturer as a
consistent advantage in reading weak cw signals in noise, but I'm hopeful that
it's just a matter of time till we have more powerful processing and smarter
firmware algorithms.
