I think we're talking in factors of tenths of a micro volt on sensativity
though.
It's not like it was deaf before, and suddenly it's a hot receiver on
2M/70CM.
It's one of the better receivers available for 2m and 70CM SSB weather you
have an older one or a newer one.
The noise floor and sensativity mods that are out there on the internet were
never implemented into any of the generations of the ts2000.
So if ones after 05 are more sensative, it's because they did something
minor and it increased it by 0.01UV or something.
