Apologies to reflector readers and FT-1000 owners everywhere for casting
aspersions on this fine radio's front end filtering. With a little nudging
from WX0B and K1ZM, I've done my detective work and found that my FT-1000's
main receiver apparently has two blown diodes in the BPF, thus allowing BCB
signal leakage into the front end. I should have tried the Beverage on the
subreceiver, since I would have then found no BCI with the signal passing
through the subreceiver's intact BPF.
