Could it be a matter of a lack of shielding? It just doesn't \nmake any sense to me why a different rig would get that interference \non receive, and even when using a different antenna.\n\nOthers have suggested using a preamp on 440, and turning off the \n2000's internal preamp and lowering the rf gain, therefore using the \npreamp to get rid of most of the birdy.\n\nBut I guess I'll find out for sure when my other rig gets here.\n\n73 de W4AS\nSebastian\n\nOn Jul 24, 2008, at 7:00 PM, Bruce Robertson wrote:\n\n> On Wed, Jul 23, 2008 at 11:31 PM, Mike Miller <[email protected]> \n> wrote:\n>> Thinking about selling 847.....Which rig is best for \n>> satellite..work.?\n>>\n>> ICOM 910 H\n>> Kenwood 2000\n>>\n>> opinions ....your 2 cents\n>\n> I own a TS-2000.
