You must compare radios with same bandwidth if You want to do the comparision chart. So first measure the -3dB bandpass of filters on 1KMP and K2 and then compare measurments in dBc/Hz. K2 is not bad at all on RX. My measurments: http://www.s55m.com/teh/K2930MP.jpg
The TX chain has "some" problems, with elevated power or transverters with high power amps attached. Still have no time to finish hard mods of TX mixing ( i wish Elecraft would have used same solution on Tx as on RX :) Best DX!

FT1000MP MK V with 500Hz filter active, AGC off, CW mode : -137dBm Still not bad FT897D with 500Hz filter active ,AGC off, CW mode : 134dBM anything over -130dBM isn’t bad. So there you go ,still got to test a ft817ND and the icom 703Plus out but that will another day, well done Elecraft ! All the best Paul M0BMN -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
