Thanks for the replies. After a lot of help from a local operator and a lot of adjustments i have it talking pretty good . I had to drop the mic gains , carriers and adjust comp , all around 25% lower than factory defaults . Still have more to adjust but at least its in the ballpark.
I've brought down MIC GAIN to 13 and COMP down to 15 . Adjusted the power a lil . It cleaned up alot but now the audio is very low . Almost no sweet spot in between .
Just purchased a Yaesu FT-100D . Everything on the the radio seems to work fine , output power is within spec. and is dead on frequency . The radio just has muffled , distorted modulation and almost reverb/echo sounding also . I did the mic mod and also replace the mic with a new one . Reset all...

Looking for opinions , pros and cons on the radios listed above and which one would you buy and why .
Thanks in advance

I've been searching for drive specs for a straight 4 pill 2879 RedDot Fatboy and come up empty handed . I would like to drive it with my RCI2995DX 4-45 watt deadkey and swings 125 -190 watts average . I just wanted to make sure that the 125-190 swing wouldn't be too much input or if i would be...
