You are correct.  There are three differences between the 
FT-1000D and the FT-1000.  The FT-1000D includes all of 
the optional filters *EXCEPT FOR THE 250 Hz 3RH IF FILTER*, 
the FT-1000D includes the BPF-1 "split band front-end 
filter" for the sub receiver, and the higher stability 
reference oscillator.

David, The archives have been reorganized. The first KD5VC link 
no longer works.  The correct link is:
