Relax, Tom. He was just kidding around. I can assure you
that this is one guy who takes his responsibility as an OO very
very serious. In fact, in general he is a very serious and
responsible guy. I am sure that he would not send out a notice
unless he actually heard a dirty signal on the air. He is aware,
however, (like many of us), that the FT1000MP is in general a clicky
rig when it comes from the factory.
