Re: FT-301AD vs FT-301A differences

Re: In search of AM filter
Hi Fred.
You are correct that having an AM filter would improve the listening experience. I your case though, given how difficult it is to find a filter and the fact that the 301 isn't general

In search of AM filter

FT-301 hacks
I ran across a funny one in one of my 301's.

FT-301AD vs FT-301A differences
I have always been curious as to what the final improvements that Yaesu made to the 301AD that justified a new designation. Or maybe, they were just using it as a marketing ploy to increase sales? Who
