The ARRL and the RSGB both came up with almost identical 
numbers.

As I recall, only one radio is history was worse than the TS2000 on 
transmit, and the receiver isn't that good either. QST publishes a 
close-spaced receiver test, and that rig was near the bottom.

Near the top of receiver performance is a ~$600 radio, with 
conventional filters.
