I wanted to take a moment to talk about my radio and panoramic adapter setup. 

I have a Yaesu FT-2000.  It is a wonderful radio alone, but like many radios its operation can be enhanced by a external panoramic adapter.  Yaesu offers the DMU-2000 option which provides a panoramic adapter, but RF Space, a third party supplier provides a superior product in my opinion. 

My FT-2000 is fitted with a RF Space IF-2000 which provides an IF output.  The IF output is then fed into the RF Space SDR-IQ.  The SDR-IQ can then be connected to your computer via USB to provide an incredibly high resolution, very fast panoramic adapter when used with the SpectraVue software. 

This is a wonderful tool, allowing you to visually search the bands, easily picking out signals to work.  It can be a tremendous asset in contest environments to hunt and pounce signals very fast. 

It is also very useful for finding signals in the often barren spaces between the ham bands. 

The system allows you to display up to 190khz of RF at one time and easily click to tune on any desired signal.  It even allows you to record up to 190khz of data to play back later and tune around within the recorded segment of that band!

I have found this to be a very useful addition to the FT-2000 and would recommend it for anyone looking for a high-resolution, fast-refresh panoramic adapter.

The IF-2000 is now approved for use on the FT-950.

Here is N4IP giving a demo of the same system I am using.

Here is a screen capture of 40m a few minutes ago from the SpectraVue software I am using.  It looks really great on my 27" 1920x1200 monitor.
