    Wow these guys work really well together. It's not easy to find two tech heads that clearly know their stuff yet don't have an awkward nerdiness on camera. That Yaesu is to die for too!

    I like the fact that when you turn it on it returns the favor.

    Hi guys, I've just placed a deposit on that radio Sat in front of you. Can wait to collect it next week 😊

    With being on a computer all day for work, I love sitting in front of the 101D and driving it as a radio should be! As a new general ticket holder, I’ve been very fortunate to have this as my 1st HF rig. And will be using it well into retirement in a few years for sure. Great video!

    Got mine a few weeks ago. This is monster!! Still learning the controls with the help of Radio Today and plenty of UA-cam videos. VC tuning and DNR/DNF are amazing, just pulls signals out of noise.
    Also brilliant service from all at ML&S, thank you

    Hands down, the FTdx101mp is the finest radio I've ever used or owned. A true game changer for me, and has rekindled my interest in the hobby.

    I love my 101D. I own a Flex, Anan, 101D and Sun SDR DX2. They other 3 are great but a very different experience. The 101 is my knobs and buttons and no computer radio. So nice to operate.

    I had the pleasure of playing with the 101 in your store. Lovely radio and BIG! What I particularly enjoyed is that it is a machine, with buttons and knobs and you do feel like truly operating a radio.

    Thanks Mark, David, this has to be one of the best intros to the FTDX101D/MP for new/prospective purchasers. Having owned the FTDX9000D, a lot of the features cross over to the 101mp which i now own. There are however some new features that are new to me yet to get the hang of that you touch on here. Great video.

    I am partial to Yaesu and the FTdx101 is a very fine radio. If it were not for Elecraft I would own one. I presently have a Elecraft K3 & P3 which I love. When I upgrade it will be to the Elecraft K4.

    I always run the radio with the notch setting set at 2500Hz, as this removes all the high end 'hiss' from the background noise floor and makes weak stations much more audible.

    I have had mine for about two years 101MP. The rig is brilliantly designed and fit and finish is excellent . It’s so ‘fun’ to operate. Nice review. I do have two wishes: one, wish they had built in Ethernet and second , using DVI-D for video out I do not get why they made such a backward move. HDMI would had made much more sense.

    Other than the nice display and spectrum scope, I wonder if it really performs better than my FTdx5000. Some folks that have both claim in actual use they are pretty close. I recently added the SDRPlay to mine so I could have a scope.

    Can anyone tell me why averaging is desirable because i personally want to know whats happening right now not a average but im open to suggestions as to why i may prefer it also dose the scu-lan have averaging with the dx10 as well just in case i do change my mind on not needing averaging

    • @taekehf
      @taekehf 3 місяці тому

      As fas as I know the purpose of the averaging is so you can see a hump to indicate there is activity on a frequency. Yaesu has solved this via the 3D-display where you can see the signals in depth vs time. This requires some fiddling with the display settings for the 3D-display to have it work nicely.
