Lots of FT2000 and FT1000 series radios have been sold or are for sale 
by contesters. Their owners replaced them with K3s. The primary reason 
is that the K3 is almost 20dB better in terms of front end performance, 
and generates 10-20 dB less trash.  The Orion II is probably the closest 
competitor.
