I don't recall anyone saying they bought "a K3 JUST TO RUN FM". But the great thing about this hobby is that there are so many different ways to enjoy it. Some people may choose to work only CW. Others get their fun trying all the modes available to them. The great thing about the K3 is that it allows you to do whatever you are interested in with no compromise.
The K3 is the finest radio I have used for HF FM. Those that I have used in the past relied on a second IF ceramic filter for their FM selectivity, so if there was a strong station on one frequency it would spoil reception of another 10KHz away. During sporadic E openings when stations tend to be either strong or gone, it was often a mess. With the K3 and its dedicated crystal filter in the first IF every station came through crystal clear with no adjacent channel interference. The great audio reports just added to the enjoyment. ----- Julian, G4ILO K3 s/n: 222 K2 s/n: 392 G4ILO's Shack: www.g4ilo.com Zerobeat Ham Forums: www.zerobeat.net/smf -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/K3-FM-Operation-tp17457370p17461718.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
