G'day, Some of us have been asking for years for the individual K2 VFO's to remember the mode they were last used on. On the "list" I believe. Despite all the bells and whistles, I've yet to find anything I can't hear on the K2 as well as I can on the K3. It's taken me a while to make the K3 on RX sound just as nice. The main thing that swung me towards to K3 was the Sub-RX option. One day we might see it.

It did have some spare room | in the firmware initially, but I think much, if not most, of it has been | used up. Furthermore, the K2 had many, many years of being pretty much | center stage, so I think you can reasonably say the K2 is "mature", or at | least nearly so within it's range of possibilities. Sure, it can still be | improved in bits and pieces here and there, but not as dramatically as can | the K3. I think many of the significant improvements that could be made to | the K2 would require considerable reworking of the design, or at least the | physical properties in the K2. I may be dead wrong about this, but that is | certainly what I was led to believe by the folks at Elecraft themselves when | they first announced the K3. In other words, Elecraft was breaking out from | the limitations inherent in their own K2 design by initiating the K3. If | you have a thirst for some substantial increase in performance in your K2, I | think what you really need to a K3! _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
