I do understand how this sounds, but that's been my experience from spending countless hours on it trying to get it to work properly (the FTDX-9000 Contest model, actually). Even after the PEP fixing program and all necessary mods, FT9000 still was a noisy radio riddled with countless bugs and...

Don't judge just from the looks or price. Stick it next to an FTDX-5000, K3, TS-590 even a IC7600/7410 in a pile-up and you might agree with me. :wink: And btw I'm talking about the so called PEP version, after replacing the RX and DSP boards. The original FTDX-9000 was pure garbage. Trust me...

I have one at my country house; Nice fully featured radio for the price, but honestly I wouldn't buy it again. Pros: Small and well built Covers V/U Affordable Many minor but useful features Cons: Very poor ergonomics AF only DSP So so receiver performance Bad TX IMD Loose...
