Somehow what I like on the air, how it sounds, is
of more interest to me that what's in an xls file,
Bob. So I'm in accord with "In any case, far too
many people are far too concerned about the
Sherwood rankings."
The data is interesting, but not of primary
interest -- to me.

One can download the Sherwood list and save it
to an EXCEL file. Then sort it by your own
choosing. The Sherwood list is presented on one
parameter only being dynamic range, narrow
spaced. There's multiple other parameters that
make for a fine receiver.

No, and it's also from 2009, but that's not the
point. The point is that there isn't going to
be much difference between the 250hz 8 pole
filter and the 200hz 5 pole filter. But think
about your comment for a moment. A stock K3
with no additional filters is that good enough
to rank that high. It might actually rank
higher, because the ARRL and Sherwood
methodologies differ.
In any case, far too many people are far too
concerned about the Sherwood rankings. Most
people don't understand what the data mean and
only worry about where a radio ranks on the
list. The few dB between radios at the top of
the Sherwood rankings means the list could
probably be reordered based on component
differences in production runs. Certainly a
radio near the top ten is good enough.
