Hi all -
Well, I fanally received my 1000MP, slightly used, but in marvelous
condition. But something is puzzling me.
It came with the optional 500hz Collins filter in the main receiver, and
I pulled it and placed it into the sub-receiver instead. I have enabled
the filter through the menu, but when I alternate between SSB and cw
modes, I swear I don't hear any difference. Is this me or have others
noticed this too?
I called Yaesu and, for the life of me, I really don't know what they
said about this, but they didn't seem to think anything was wrong.
What's your experience with this? Thanks in advance.

All responses were positive on the 1000MP performance. A few concerns over the
display, knob size, etc. But no one that owned one had found a better rig. Many
positive responses about the 765 as well. Thanks to all for the replys. Time to
go home and try and figure out how to use this new MP now .....

Subject: Ken if232c & contest logging
Message-ID: <199702141943.GAA28432@platinum.speednet.com.au>
Hello All,
I have just purchased a second hand if232c interface for my kenwood 850sat.
Can this interface be used to key the transmitter for cw operation using CT
or n6tr logging programmes (or is its use simply restricted to changing
Radio freq, mode etc). Unfortunately I did not get any instructions with the
unit and thus far my efforts to get the cw keying facility within CT
operational for the Test have been unsuccessful.
Any useful hints on the operation of this if232c unit are also sought and
appreciated. Will try and provide some contest mults on 160m.
Replies direct to my e-mail address please.
Regards

Dear Alec:
(With apologies to all who have to read this, yet again):
I have bounced email messages sent to you on Feb. 7, Feb. 10, and Feb. 12.
As I have repeatedly stated, both to you publicly and privately, we are
willing to help you solve any problem you are encountering. We have been
unable to contact you. You have not given us any accurate description of
the trouble you are encountering. It appears from your public message that
you have not even attempted the repair we have suggested.
On top of that, Ten-Tec DOES NOT as a matter of policy handle service
requests by electronic mail. If you were ham in the United States, any
request would be met with a polite refusal and a request that you call or
fax us. Because of the cost and distance involved we were more than
willing to assist you by electronic mail to Europe.
As stated before, the cq-contest reflector is not the forum for this
discussion and you're doing nothing more than make yourself look foolish.
As with every owner of a Ten-Tec transceiver, we will do whatever necessary
to help you solve your problem. My recommendation is that you contact us
by TELEPHONE and we will assist you. We also can provide you with contacts
for technical assistance in Europe as well.
Sincerely (still, but thinner),
Scott Robbins, W4PA
Ten-Tec
