I'll probably get lynched for saying this, but for my ears I've never found a DSP system that is as good as a pure analog system when there is rough noise. The K3 is much better than my Orion I, but I strongly prefer full analog IF's with rough noise or when a signal is right at noise floor and the floor is a little rougher than white noise.

To me it sounds more like a little intermodulation or mixing of the noise and signal. I've even considered building an analog IF system just to see if I like it better. :-) 73 Tom ______________________________________________________________ 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
