[Elecraft] Contrast and compare...

[w6jd at comcast.net]

Indeed it does look awful, and I'm not just talking about its
appearance. First of all is the "traditional" triple conversion architecture
with all the spurious problems that implies. The roofing filter is, of course,
at high IF which makes high selectivity filters very difficult if not
impossible. Digital mode PC capability is an option unlike the K3.
And a 10watt KIT for almost $3K, I'd be ashamed to sell such a
product. 

Keep in mind that the 10 watt version of the K3 costs $1399. How
can there be a question?!
