Hi,

In order to complete my last page devoted to a review of the Yaesu FT-1000MP
Mark-V available next week on my website
http://www.astrosurf.com/lombry/menu-qsl.htm
I would like to know the opinion of users in a few words.

If you used this Mark-V for more than one year, I would like that you draw
me the main positive and negative points of this model in afew words.
Personnaly I think to the next points, but they are probably 5 to 10 more :

+ : 200W, 3 IF stages, many direct access options, many excellent
anti-interference tools, efficient and powerful DSP at IF stages, optional
Collins mechanical filters, custom multi-function bar graphs, many lights
and warning on display and control panel, quick access to memories, double
VFO, DSP speaker
- : bulky, outmoded design, outmoded fluorescent digital display (instead of
LCD), Menu access to revise, complex Menuing with neither scrolling nor
full text, RIT/SPLIT renamed CLAR/VFO RX-TX, external PSU, no bandscope, too
complex reset procedures, etc

Your appreciation is welcome.
