That's possible. 

Here's what I didn't like: When I unplug the antenna on all other
rigs, the audio goes completely quiet. With the Mark V, there is still
a constant "white noise" audible, and it's still audible on a quiet
band when I plug the antenna back in. 

It could be there was a defect, but the fellow who bought it operates
mostly 75 meter phone where that isn't a problem. :-)

Also I don't like having to buy additional filters. The Icoms use DSP
and have everything you could want built in already.
