[Elecraft] K3 vs. Icom IC-7600

[chen dave]

Hello all,

      Two weeks ago, in my friend's shack I compared K3,IC7700,IC7800(by ear
ONLY), since there are no major contest in that day,  so I can't say
anything about "dynamic range " or something like that.
      IMHO, ic7700's DSP is best, 7800 DSP also better than K3. [A/B compare
NR NB and DSP filter function].
     K3 need to change in K4(my opinion):
1,  13.8V connector, after mine thaw during the 2008 cqww contest, I have
replaced it with connector was use in Motorola transmitter.
2,  Shield design.
3,  DSP function improvement.
4,  true FSK control use RS232 port(not ACC port).

     By the way, overall I like the K3 very much.
