I'm really happy with the 3000. Ive been making AM contacts on 20 and 40 with great results, and plenty of sideband contacts. I can filter out encroaching signals next to weak sideband signals, etc with ease. I also love the 96khz panadapter, which i usually split with a waterfall display. <br>
<br>that said, the only real issue I've seen so far is that FM doesn't seem to work properly, and I assume this is because the transmit bandwidth is limited to 3.3KHz on the 3000. I don't know this for sure because I haven't really investigated it fully, but there's practically no information about FM and deviation in the manual. I had hoped to pick up some transverters for 2, 222 and 440 at some point but with out FM it might be sorta silly.<br>
<br>I know you use xverters, have any surplus sitting around you'd like to sell?<br><br>-Dave<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jan 11, 2010 at 1:24 PM, Thomas Moore <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:piper925@att.net">piper925@att.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

since their conception. I get an inkling of their performance with the TenTec
Jupiter radio (processor). Ya can really dsp filter out unwanted noise...to the
point where it's like "dead" radio...these old ears need a little hiss. The
dial-a-width on rx and tx along with the pbt are very usable. All in all a fun
