I built my K2 last year, and I am continuing to get to know it better,
and I am consistently impressed with its capabilities. Could you supply
a comparison and contrast of the K2 and the IC7000, or just other radios
in general?

Hi David,
I know little of the internals of any radio. It could be crystal filters
versus
DSP filters, single conversion versus n conversions. I like 500Hz filters
in pileups where the K2 gives clean signals and IC7000 gives not so clean.

I can tell you after 8 DXpeditions using the K2 and then going
to Scarborough Reef with IC7000s, there really is a difference.
