Mike,
I am currently using an FT-990. This isn't quite as sensitive as the=20
TS-850 but as it is used with the RF gain reduced this isn't an issue.
Tonight, using the HF multiband quad and feeder fed aginst ground, with=20
the 500Hz filter switched in, the S-meter on the 850 read between S7 and

S9+5dB on QRN.
The 990 S4 to S6.5.
The BC band attentuation with the 880 is high - about 8 Spoints. With=20
the 990 it is about 2 Spoints.
While making these measurements heard GW4HXO working G3XIZ and G3KEV.=20
Also audible was OK0EMW.
