[CQ-Contest] ft1kd vs ft1kmp

[Kelly Taylor]

Hi all,

I see that the Ft1000d is now, on average, a couple hun more than a used FT1kMP.

Just out of curiosity, what does the collective wisdom say about the differences between rigs for contesting.

It seems to me that DSP has become the easy way out, and that it still doesn't replace sound receiver engineering. 

The FT1kD didn't have the key clicks, did it?

My rigs now are an IC756PRO and a TS850SAT. I've had a few people say they trade either, or both, for an FT1kD in a heartbeat.

I'd be really interested to hear of anybody who's put an FT2k through the paces.

73, kelly
