I never owned a Pro III, but elecrafts did _prevent_ me from buying one, I'll say that. Actually, it was my K2 that turned me away from it because even the K2 outperforms the Pro III RX by a bit and especially in close-in rejection/desense performance. True I had to build the K2 and it lacks the creature comforts but it's still actually a better basic performing RX (my #1 priority).
There's no comparison with the K3, which is just better in every respect I could come up with. The Pro III has the pretty screen, but that didn't make the sacrifice in basic performance worth it to me. In fact, I haven't been able to find an RX that exceeds the overall performance of the K3 yet period, except the new Yaesu or maybe the 7800 or something like that..... The bang/buck is heavily in favor of both the K2 and K3 by just about any metric for me. YMMV, tho.... 73, LS W5QD -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3-Replaced-Your-Pro-III-tp4957548p4958571.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
