Now that I have installed the recently received KSYN3A upgrade in my K3, I am wondering what improvements to expect? I have seen test data on this list showing improved transmit performance and anecdotal reports on improved receive performance. In an initial quick listening session on cw and FT8, I don't hear any dramatic changes in receive performance.
The KSYN3A upgrade is a significant investment (over $400 when including shipping and tax) and will likely increase the resale value of the radio somewhat, but as a casual operator should I expect to experience any noticeable performance improvements?
