While I own an IC-7800, I use my K2 for QRP contests, and my K1 and KX1 for more portable operations (though the K2 sometimes does duty there too).

I have never missed my IC-7800 when using my K2; I have sometimes missed my K2 when using one of the K rigs, mostly a band issue.

Subject: [ic7800] The 7800 as a QRP rig...a couple of observations

Even though I have had a Ten Tec Argo V and an Elecraft K1 in the shack as
dedicated QRP rigs, I find myself switching to the 7800 during QRP events
because of its superior filtering, noise reduction capabilities, and
available computer interface options.
And those are what I like about my K2 as well...

I am due to send my IC-7800 in for the upgrade, and I will miss it while it is gone though...
