Yaesu brought out the FT DX 5000 in 2009 as a 200 W HF and 6 m base station with the AC supply inside and two separate receivers. The main receiver uses a 9 MHz first IF with sharp crystal roofing filters, and Yaesu's brochure quoted 112 dB of third-order dynamic range at 10 kHz spacing and 105 dB at 2 kHz. The sub receiver is its own up-conversion design with its own roofing filters and AGC, so you can listen to two frequencies on one band. It borrowed the 400 MHz HRDDS local oscillator and the heavy brass tuning knob from the FT DX 9000. Three versions were sold. The MP adds an oven-controlled reference and a 300 Hz roofing filter, and the MP and D both come with the SM-5000 station monitor. At 21 kg it's a heavy radio to ship.
Bench check
Should come with it
Check the listing photos against this list, and ask the seller about anything you can’t see. A missing piece should come off the price.
Yaesu's manual has the radio show HI-SWR above 3:1 when the tuner can't find a match, so ask what antenna it ran on. It weighs 21 kg, so ask how it will be packed.

Buying guide
We'd buy tankgrinder's FTDX-5000D at $3,078 delivered, titled works good with its manual, but ask whether the SM-5000 station monitor that came with the D is included, since the title doesn't list it. Only four are for sale, so the $3,078 to $3,600 spread isn't a market read. The MP from radiotype, titled very nice with the SM-5000 and box, is an auction at $3,090 delivered with no bids, and the MP adds an oven-controlled reference and the 300 Hz roofing filter, so it's the one to bid on if you want the top version. The AC supply is built in and takes 90 to 264 V, so there's no supply to buy, but it weighs 21 kg, so ask how it'll be packed and for a full 200 W wattmeter reading on 160 m, 20 m, 10 m and 6 m into a dummy load rated for it. Skip the zero-feedback MP at $3,272 and paylessgifts' D at $3,600 from a 97.8% seller.

The FTDX-5000MP is the top version, with the OCXO and 300 Hz roofing filter, and this one is titled very nice with the SM-5000 and box. It's an auction at $3,090 delivered with no bids, so it will climb, and there's no test claim, so ask for power readings first.
