I can't compare against a K3, but I can against a Flex5000a and a Flex 6300, and this Rx is quieter and smoother at weak signals. I am a computer junkie by trade and I really can't stand the SmartSDR interface for the 6000 series Flex's. I have had a Flex for 2.5 years and I decided it was time for a well designed small knobbed radio. I added an Afedri SDR as a panadapter and I have the best of both worlds. No loss of computer features and gained the K3.

For him that is important every moment he is on the air... He realizes he may never be aware of receive improvement, but knows the upgrade was well worth it. In my case, I seldom go over 30 wpm, so I did not need the upgrade the way he did, but I am still glad I did it. I may never know how differently my rig actually performs, but it "seems" quieter. I realize that could be just because I want to justify the upgrade, but I am a very happy camper regardless.
