[Elecraft] YAQ: K3

[John, KI6WX]

Toby;
The phase noise of the K3 is significantly less than the K2.  One of our 
main design goals was to improve the local oscillator design of the K3 
without adding significant cost to the radio.  After much design work and 
experimental tests, we were able to find a unique design that did this.

The TCXO option has no effect on phase noise, only on the long term 
frequency stability of the radio.
