[Yaesu] FT-1000 MK V Field

[Joe Subich, W4TV]

It sounds like the seller had a CW filter in one of the IFs that 
was removed before he sold you the radio without resetting the 
filter selection menu.  

Without knowing what filters are still installed, check menu 
5-2 (CW nor), 5-1 (8.2-2.0), 5-3 (8.2-250), 5-5 (455-2.0), 
5-6 (455-500), and 5-7 (455-250). The factory "stock" settings 
are: 5-2 = 8.2, and 5-1, 5-3, 5-5, 5-6, 5-7 = OFF.  

Check pages 29, 101, 102 and 113 for more detail on the CW filters, 
their installation, options and configuration. 

Also check the Nor, Nar1, and Nar2 selectivity options for the 
main receiver.  

73,
