[Elecraft] K3 Replaced Your Pro III?

[lstavenhagen]

I never owned a Pro III, but elecrafts did _prevent_ me from buying one, I'll
say that. Actually, it was my K2 that turned me away from it because even
the K2 outperforms the Pro III RX by a bit and especially in close-in
rejection/desense performance. True I had to build the K2 and it lacks the
creature comforts but it's still actually a better basic performing RX (my
#1 priority).

There's no comparison with the K3, which is just better in every respect I
could come up with. The Pro III has the pretty screen, but that didn't make
the sacrifice in basic performance worth it to me. 

In fact, I haven't been able to find an RX that exceeds the overall
performance of the K3 yet period, except the new Yaesu or maybe the 7800 or
something like that.....

The bang/buck is heavily in favor of both the K2 and K3 by just about any
metric for me. YMMV, tho....
