[Elecraft] Two K3's, Same Band, Same Time?

[Alan Bloom]

We used to do that kind of thing all the time in the old days of
tube-type radios.  I used to keep an old Drake B-line around just for
use on Field Day.  It wasn't until the advent of solid-state
fully-synthesized radios that it became impossible to do phone and CW on
the same band on FD.

The K3 has finally brought modern technology up to the performance level
we had 40 years ago.  :=)
