        Rod, I have it at 58/59 dB for IMDDR3 and 66 dB for BDR.
I did not include all radios tested in the list...mainly those
I thought of as potential contest radios.

        BTW, I went back and looked carefully at the FT-1000MP,
but I honestly cannot tell if the measurements were at 1 or
5 kHz.  That graph is not expanded like some of the later
graphs, so it is very difficult to interpolate the data.  In
magnifying it, it looks like more than 1 kHz but less than
5 kHz, so I'm really not sure.

                                                CUL LW,

P.S.  I bet nobody else on this reflector knows what "LW" means!  ;-)
