K3 (with the S-mods) and K3S are still strong going and competitive
superhets if you have all the necessary filters and use the items in the
menuĀ (like AGC-settings etc). It's fast, no delays, easy to use, the
panadapterdisplay is already on my computerscreen (don't need a P3 for
that) and integrated with mouse control etc. People who use my K3 during
a contest are still impressed how smooth the K3 operates in every mode,
and how good a receiver it has.
Only thing I would like myself is an different noise reduction
algorithm. To get there, you probably need new 'infrastucture' like
direct digital conversion and full SDR. That's a dicision for the makers.
But please for the K3 (this is for Wayne), could you find the time to
compensate the S-meter for pre-amp2?
73 all,
