A while back there was some discussion on Contest rigs. The following rigs were considered as contest worthy radios: FT-1000D, FT-1000MP, FT-1000MP MkV, FTdx9000D TS-850S, TS-850SAT, TS-930S, TS-950S

The SDR-1000 does not support QSK. CW seems to be an afterthought with this radio. For SSB it should be fine for contesting. _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list C

Nothing wrong with the Mark V or Mark V Field, they're essentially the much the same rig as the "original" MP. In fact, check the Sherwood Engineering web page and you'll see that the MP and Mark V F

Jeff is correct, Mal. The switches on the front panel of the MKV let you select pre-programmed pairs of cascaded 2nd and 3rd IF filters. If for instance you have the MK V setup with a pair of 2nd and

Also remember that the QST numbers for both the FT1000MP and FT1000MP MKV were at a 20khz spacing, which is really pretty useless for evaluating receiver performance, especially for a contest environ

I have to agree with everything Jeff said. If I recall, the receiver IMD specs on the Field were inferior to the original MP. Another thing that annoys me on the MkV and Field is that the main displa

I have no problem selecting the filter combination I want with my Field. I only play CW and RTTY contests and I have 500 and 250 Hz filters in both IFs. I can easily change from both 500s to one 500

Dave, The idea that the original MP has better RX specs than the Mark V series is a fallacy. This notion got it's genesis because, in the original ARRL MP review, the specs were taken with an MP that

Is the fact that you can't on-the-fly mix and match mismatched sets of IF filters a really crucial issue? If you have both 250 and 500 Hz filters, what's the advantage of using a wider one in the fir
