Rob doesn't use Elecraft equipment so I'm not sure whether he reads this list of
not. I do know that he has repeatedly said that any radio in the top 10 or more
on his list would suit almost any user. He also tries to implore people to NOT
judge a radio purely on the sort order of the presented data. Many other factors
are important too: ergonomics and reliability are prime concerns for me.
Even though my personal radio (loaned to Rob for testing) is near the top of the
sorted list, based on my criteria it would be nowhere close to equipment I've
owned before. YMMV

Maybe I've missed an answer since I don't read all the posts but I'm
wondering if the K4HD's design should beat the K3S's on Sherwood's RX list.
I'm sure it will be at least a year before that list is updated with a
production K4HD so plenty of time to speculate. I have not seen any
detailed specifications out yet but it confuses me when I read that the K4HD
will have a K3S front end. I've got 3 K3's that are fully upgraded so maybe
the K4 line is just a nice product packaging idea and not a serious jump in
performance? As you can tell, I am no RF engineer but simply a numbers guy
who is interested in having a better performing rig purely for ego sake
because the K3 already supplies and outperforms my contesting skills
significantly.
Maybe this is an Eric or Wayne question.
Thanks,
