I have tried and had many radios and I only test them with headphones always with the same headphones and the same antenna with the same sensitivity, Yaesu uses a DNR which no radio has and digital noise reduction, that's why it makes the difference between other radios radios have the patent and no one can put it in the radios, kewood, icom and others, they all have NR non-digital noise reduction, maybe that's why?

7700 is to sensitieve on the low bands i always use the att

I don't buy Hamradios based on the Sherwood list. Why would I? I don't have a lab environment. Most Ham's would benefit more from a better antenna than a better rig?

Thanks for the video. Personally like the 101, but S Meter should not be 0 unless it's not hooked up to an antenna. There is always a noise floor so meter isn't accurate (scratching head). DNR was impressive, but 7700 put up a fight. Nice radios!!

a fantastic receiver

I think the noise floor is not so bad on the 7700 ? The Lx station was going over the 9 on the 7700 but 7-8 on the 101? Might be an 1s of difference? Both are FAB . The 101 might have better NR . I enjoyed your video .

Both good radios yes the 101 dnr is far better.

What antenna are you using John? S1 or less noise on 40M is unreal receive to have!

Hi Robbie Just a 40m dipole and a g5rv just lucky at this qth on lower bands and lots of ferrites hi.

why people keep saying that a radio is quieter by judging the s-meter? this is lack of knowledge FIRST: Icom and Yaesu use different calibration for the s-meter scale SECOND: you’re not giving the two radios the same starting conditions. Yaesu is in IPO but should be PREAMP1 ON to set similar sensitivity THIRD: the band noise here is setting the noise floor, not the radio receiver section. FOURTH: the filter bandwidth doesn’t match between the two by ear. Too many misconceptions. 73

How do you find your Ftdx101D Against your IC7700 ? I'm curious ??
