Re: [amsat-bb] Re: 706 on Sats

 Steve one more thing. Did Kenwood fix the birdie problem with the 2000? I
remember there was a birdie right smack in the middle of the SO50, and AO27
downlink. Any 2000 owners want to comment? Other then that I think the 2000
has  better HF performance, over the 847, and of course better DSP over the
Yae-coms.  You could buy the 2000 and use the 706 for the SO50, and AO27
downlink. I have an 847 and a 910 in the shack and I prefer the 847 over the
910 for sat work. I don't use the 847 on HF.
