Also remember that fundamental performance was the yardstick for radios of the day, not "how many" features. I like the fact that K3 sounds like the fine classic analog radios, and on transmit has a nice fully modulated AM signal plus click free CW.
[Elecraft] Weight of equipment Bob Waddell n4bgr at hotmail.com Tue Jul 1 16:05:58 EDT 2008 Previous message: [Elecraft] AN ALL-K3 FIELD DAY Remember the 20's & 30's when equipment took up an entire wall of a shack? Remember rigs like the Johnson transmitter line?...Hallicrafters rx's, etc? How about transceivers of the 60's, 70's & 80's? As years went by the weight of equipment began to drop...(no heavy transformers, thinner metals for chassis, plastic cases, etc, etc) Thank God for lighter equipment...I can't lift the heavy stuff any more! Bring on light, small and high tech! 73, Bob _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
