Speaking of competitive rigs, I see QST just reviewed the FT3000.
The number that caught
my eye (well actually the chart) was composit noise. A whopping
-120 dbc at 10 KHz
and beyond ! Yikes. The K3 was -140 dbc at 10 KHz and -155 at 100
KHz.
Just to clarify for those who aren't used to hearing these numbers,
-140 dBc phase noise is significantly better than -120 dBc. It could
mean the difference between having two transceivers coexist or not
when in close proximity -- hence Rick's example of Field Day.

You sure don't want one of those noise generators at your next Field
Day.
If someone shows up with one, put him on 10 meters at the far end of
the field.
