Hi, Can anyone point me at some resources to better understand why I want a K3, as opposed to keeping my Icom 756 Pro III? I am considering the purchase of a K3/100, I saw a presentation on it at our club meeting, liked what I saw very much and would like to get more input from people actually using the rig.
I am doing the due diligence part of a new rig purchase here, and am looking for just about any input regarding the K3. So far I have spent a number of hours looking at everything on the net I can find for the rig. What initially caught my eye is the blocking specs... Something like 140 db! I have 4 active hams living within 1/2 mile of me, and while the Pro III works well, I can tell from de-sense that others are on when one of them operates. The band scope of the PRO III will show an increased base line across the entire scope... All 4 run a KW. The blocking specs alone may be enough to force the switch, but, I am wondering if anyone has gotten a K3 running with MixW, how easy is it to point and click tune the rig via a PC interface, etc., do you like the rig, etc. If you have used a 756 PRO III, and switched to the K3, I would be very interested in contacting you via phone to discuss your thoughts on the K3. -- Support better RFI reporting practices, please sign this petition: at Whitehouse.gov http://wh.gov/lpz5Y ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
