FTDX1200,3000,5000 AM performance??


I've also had my eye on the ftdx1200 and was curious of the same.

My only other experience with an HF transceiver on AM was an Icom IC-735 and if you gamed the ALC via the ALC port on the back with a 9 volt battery and a potentiometer you could get it to swing forward on an AVG watt meter and sound pretty good.

I've heard that a lot of the newer rigs don't have the overly agressive ALC on AM problems that the older rigs had.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
