[Elecraft] [K3] QST Labs review? -- Pool?

[mvolstad at fuse.net]

Has Rob actually commited to publishing a detailed technical evaluation of the K3? If so, I believe that will be a first. I have searched his web site and cannot find detailed evaluations of *any* current HF rigs. His tables of receiver performance numbers are very convenient, but the numbers themselves do not seem to differ greatly from those found in the QST reviews. He also has a number of very interesting and illuminating white papers, but these are general technical discussions rather than detailed evaluations of specific radios.
