[Elecraft] Icon, Yeasu or ? Vs. Elecraft

[Karl Marderian]

   The difference between the brands, sepic wise will never be night  
and day. You cann't call any of one brand, junk.
The big difference between them all is company philosophy. Elecraft  
builds on what they have already made. Even if the others do offer  
frimware up grades here and there. The answer to major problems is a  
new model. In cameras, electronics and Ham Radio, it is the view of  
many companies that this way to keep the monies coming.
The Elecraft group is more proactive. The upgrades are both hard and  
software. K1-3 owners are kit builders/hands on Hams. I love my K3 not  
only for it's great specs, but that I known the radio inside-out. I  
feel as if I am part of it's creative change and that Elecraft will  
support it's modles for years to come.
