Dick,
I've had a K3 for over 5 years, and a 7600 for a few months (but before
that a 756 Pro2 for years). What specific questions do you have? They
should be very similar in CW reception, though the K3 would have an edge in
very crowded (e.g., contest) conditions.
Let me know if there is more that you need.

Hi All,
I am new to this list. I do not at present have a K3, although I did build
a kit several years ago. Shortly after I built it I had to sell it. I did
not use CW at that time.
I acquired an Icom 7600 which I still have. I have become addicted to CW
lately. If you go to my QRZ page you will see t he antenna that I have to
use here at the retirement center where we live. I have been using mostly
PSK until lately and I can reach into Canada and down into Mexico (a far cry
from the 50 foot tower I sued to have). But it wlrks and keeps me
interested.
My question is: Is there anyone that used to have a 7600 and now has a K3?
How do they compare? I am having a problem with reception of CW. It could
be the antenna, but I am noticing when I try to use reverse beacons that I
don't get any hits. I am TX at about 50 watts. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance. The more that I read about the K3 the better I like it.
Dick, N5XRD
