Topband: Image Rejection

["Chortek, Robert L" <Robert.Chortek@berliner.com>]

Good Day,

I am considering an FTdx-5000 (currently use an FTdx-9000) for 160 meters and 
wondered about the Image and IF Rejection figures of the 5000.  They are 60 and 
99 db respectively.  The Image rejection is about 50 db less than the 9000.  I 
admit to not really understanding the "real world" implications of Image 
rejection, but this seems to be a large difference.

Can someone please tell me if this would be an issue for a guy who will use the 
rig only for 160 meter dxing?

Thanks es 73,

Bob/AA6VB
