> low level pass band mixing was still an issue If I know exactly what you mean by low level pass band mixing, the multiple weak signal "muddle", that problem was decisively cleared up by the firmware significant digit fix for the AGC algorithm. It was a startling improvement in the K3's sound. It was even more startling in what it did for diversity reception of a weak signal pileup. Prior to the fix, the muddle had been removing the aural clues that the brain uses to create a sound stage. Afterwards, wow. At this point, that fix was a long time ago. Elecraft has been working on the K3 for what, seven years now. Any complaint made first 5 years ago is likely long since fixed, though some, with one complaint fixed, seem to take little joy in that and immediately look for something else to complain about. Some people still have a theoretical complaint about one device in the analog RF/IF RX string, but I have never been able to hear anything they were complaining about. They had their theoretical point no question, but apparently the K3 does not live in the range where that point would be invoked. So no harm, no foul. I don't drink KoolAid. Don't believe in it. But there's a bunch that drinks 55 gallon drums of inverse KoolAid. 73, Guy ______________________________________________________________ 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]
