Being a former owner of several FT-1000D radios, and one left in the shack on the shelf next to the K3 which is in the "primary position" I have to agree, at first try this is the answer that will put my FT-1000D out of work, for sale and replaced by another K3. Kudos super job, Im sure there will be small amount of tweaking here and there etc, but this is great. Bill has testified to what is probably the greatest use for APF, pulling weak signals out of the noise ( and I mean weak), it will not make 100 percent copy of them, but sure will allow for a QSO that was impossible before. This brings to K3 to the best there is in my book. Thanks thanks thanks Wayne and Lyle for listening to users who want the best performance for not only our personal use but for the K3 in general. I think Waynes comments on his and Lyles surprise as to APF effectiveness is the icing on the cake. Also please do not do as Yaesu did in its mistakes, they listened to people who thought it was too "ringy" and reduced the "Q" it made the FT-1000D later series worthless and they had to be modified to the old circuit. so lets not go that road again. Slight ring is normal and the price you pay to hear a signal or not hear it. Thanks ..
