Thanks, but look out.
I have a few questions already.
1.  I am using the ldg kt-100, and I wonder if I have to manually disable
the internal tuner, or if it is disabled automatically?
2.  The radio tunes down to 400 KHZ.
I thought it went lower.  Am I wrong?
I don't see any reason to play with that 20 DB jumper, because it won't
change the signal to noise ratio.

Congrats on the new rig, Howard!!!!

You will love the TS590!

And, the nice thing is that there's lots of expertise on the list to help
you with the learning curve.

So, have fun, and ask away if you have questions.

Well I have a ts-590-s on the desk.  Discovering lots of things.

They have separate adjustable AGC settings for SSB and CW.

You can adjust each separately with 220 settings. 1 being the fastest and 20
the slowest.  There are also two switchable filter settings.  Very handy for
CW listening for answers to cq's.

Lots of things to learn yet.
