Hi Tony, I used my K3 this year and did not notice the problem Tony. Last year, I used an FT-900 for an hour and gave up on it because the inter modulation products were so bad and used my Kenwood TS-850. Signals were very weak this year with rapid fading. It would be very possible for two stations near each other to be hearing different signal strengths. Only a few signals were strong and those were only on Sunday afternoon for me. I did notice some distortion on the very strong signals when slightly off frequency which I do not have on the TS-850. My non-contest comparisons with weak signals between the TS-850 and the K3 are that signals that are Q3 on the TS-850 are Q4 on the K3. Does not sound like much, but is the difference between QSO and no QSO.
