Here's a link the the Sherwood specs. The IC-7600 is a decent radio, but you can get nicely appointed K3 and you'll have a better radio in all respects, excepting the fish-finder.
http://www.sherweng.com/table.html Notice that the IC-7600 has the 25th ranked receiver in that table. The Icom's menu system is easier to navigate, but I just got my K3 three days ago, I got it up and running with just a cursory reading of the manual. And while the K3 is complex there is a benefit in that you can configure it to fit almost any operating style or situation. The K3 is the best performing rig I've ever owned and while I guess it'd be nice if it looked a little more like an FT2000/5000, there is a great deal to be said for the styling of the K3 and the relatively small size and light weight. Good luck making the choice that's right for you! 73, Scott, N9AA On 3/11/12 3:09 AM, Hisashi T Fujinaka wrote: > I'm fantasizing about a new radio and I do know how much I like my K2.
