[Elecraft] Departing list ......

[Brett gazdzinski]

>From what I have heard, the 7000 will be very poor compared to the K3.

The 756 pro was much worse than the K2, and all the 756 pro series
are at least twice the price of the 7000!

1.6 MHz to 440 in a very small box, how good could it really be?

As a mobile rig, it would likely be neat, but has no antenna tuner,
you have to add that...
Just like those really little handhelds that do 500 KHz to UHF, 
they do it all....poorly....
