Hello Guy, a very interesting evaluation of the 1000MP.  Your diagnosis coincides with my observations with the K3. I did not own an FT-1000MP, but I was using my K3 for listening on the very crowded

Phil was great copy here and I heard the K1CP QSO very well around 2150 UT with signals peaking loud at 559 or maybe even better on peaks.  N1UR was also calling but an EA1 station was calling VK6GX

There is something magic that happens on any of the ham bands at any given time.  Hearing weak signals that should not be there is what gets my heart pumping.  Hearing watery signals on 160 meters fr
