Whomever,
I have had the receive desense after transmitting problem with my FT-1000MP
as described. When I come back from a transmission, the AGC frequently seems
to be swamped and the receiver front end acts like it is shut down. I have
to click the mike key a couple of times to get the receiver to open up again.
This is bad especially in contesting.
I had an oscillator quit that supported xmit from 14,500 to 21,500, so I have
sent the radio the Ham Radio Repair (Milton Lord) and he will look at the AGC
swamping problem. Don't know if he will have a ready fix or not. For a
while I was just turning the AGC off and then rolling the RF gain to the
point where the receiver would open up most of the time after transmitting.
