My location is very quiet - typically well under S1 on 75 and 40 during the daytime. There is flat no QRM here. I can usually hear SSB stations 500 to 600 miles distant all day long on 75 - and can QSO with them easily if they can hear me - few can, as most locations are not this quiet.

I have been told I waste my QTH, as I don't do much DX and no contests at all. My enjoyment comes from armchair rag chew. The K3 excels for this task, as I can easily eliminate offending nearby signals and noise. That said, I really do wonder if I would get noticeable improvement from the new synth board?

I asked previously, however didn't receive any really definitive answers. Hence, I ask again. What improvements will I notice? Such as less white noise? Improved filtering of nearby signals? Please, no theoretical answers or lectures on hearing abilities - I want to hear from experienced rag chewers that can relate if they have gained solid and noticeable improvements from the new synth.

Thanks,

Bill W2BLC K-Line
