Wayne Very true and I can see and hear it in person in the radios.
A side note on the P3/SVGA I had used LP-PAN and SDR-IQ both with my 5000 and they work OK LP-Pan I got rid of early on to hard to keep running all the time. SDR-IQ much better and some nice features but......the P3 is my favorite of them all for sure you plug it in and it works from the very first time out of the gate a fine product. I didn't care for it before the SVGA adapter came out but just the P3 is fine for outdoor use alone. All I can say is keep up the good work and may it be very rewarding for you your company and employees "GOOD JOB" Thx & 73, Fred/N0AZZ -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Wayne Burdick Sent: Friday, August 10, 2012 10:55 PM To: Phil Hystad Cc: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Sherwood ranking Phil Hystad wrote: > But, when you look at those top three entries you have to ask the > question "Are these measurements effectively the same?" I mean, is > there any true discernible difference between those top radios? The short answer: In most operating situations they would all perform equally well. The long answer: They're vastly different radios. The '5000 is definitely a nice rig, if a bit on the Statuesque end of the spectrum at 50+ pounds. Both the K3 and KX3 have much better blocking dynamic range than the '5000, yet are virtually equal to it in 2 kHz IMDDR3. Between the K3 and KX3, the K3 would be the better choice for serious contest work given its superhet architecture and narrow crystal filters. The K3 also has the highest-performance panadapter option of any radio. The KX3 would be the better choice for hand-held operation, and it will run much longer from a 9-volt lithium ultralife battery. 73, Wayne N6KR > > > On Aug 10, 2012, at 6:14 PM, John K9UWA > <[email protected]> wrote: > >> I would love to see Rob do the K3 radio AGAIN with the latest goodies >> in it. >> Notice that it shows as tested in 2008.
