I owned an R-2000 back in the 1980's. On MF it had too much
sensitivity and low dynamic range and overloaded with big antennas. However
I put a preselector in line (an old Grove TUN-4) and the rig became a real
DX machine. The R-5000 was a better receiver with higher dynamic range
so did not overload as easily. The down side of the R-5000 was the poor
stock Murata AM filter. From memory the R-5000 had the receiver of the
amateur radio transceiver TS-430.
