Yes, a Chinese TS830 because the Japanese had their chance at it. ;-) Also enjoy cranking from bottom CW band to band top with manual VFO, fixed selectivity, etc. Oh yes, somebody makes lots of money competing with old units on eBay.
I tell anyone that will listen, the flexibility of a DSP radio means little without the rich full natural sound of a good analog radio. Elecraft has done this (IMO). They have made the hobby technically better without the artifactual warts. I have thought about how the K3 will fare better in 30 years, since the design is modular and so many of the components are in large scale integrated circuits. The old Kenwood PC boards are disintegrating from old age. I'd like think the K3 will far surpass TS930, 940, etc. in the old age game - probably outlasting me. ;-) [Elecraft] [K3] K3 VS 7600 Sherwood List pd0psb p.s.bijpost at gmail.com Sat Sep 5 06:49:37 EDT 2009 Previous message: [Elecraft] K3 VS 7600 Sherwood List Next message: [Elecraft] [K3] K3 VS 7600 Sherwood List Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] Now, if manufacturers would put their analyzers aside, and just sit down and LISTEN to those grand old rigs.... And make dsp models with the same characteristics and sound. What a wonderful world it would be ;-) I wouldn't mind a TS-830 replica with all dsp inside. 73' Paul PD0PSB ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
