Here is my question, Have a 1000 that Iam giving to one of the kids in our
club. He asked me about 6 meters,as he worked that band as a tech. I looked
thru the forms and the KB didn't see much about the 1000 and six meters. I
never used the radio on 6 and do not remember. I realize the rig has very low
output on six , How did the 1000 hear on six meters? Better off to use a
transverter for 6?
I have the SDR1000-LP, so I can't speak to the low power out if you have
the PA installed. On my unit the output on 6m is ~300mw, which is
comparable to the lower bands.
On receive it performs reasonably well, although is not as sensitive as
my F3000. I have made some contacts barefoot when 6 is open, but really
could use a preamp. My 6M7JHV at 60ft helps! The spurs are not too bad;
they are actually lower than on 10m.
Certainly a useable rig, but get it in his hands before the E-season is
over.
