The Yaesu "car" may be on top because of slightly higher
"acceleration",  but I'm watching what people are driving around the
race track, ya know those guys who have to add *everything* up to
finish the race in front.

The Yakencom boys keep throwing something or the other overboard to
try and match the K3.  And I would have thought that the Kenwood 590
would have finished in better shape (that's what's new on the list
BTW).  If you bought your K3 in a fit of p***s envy, you're sure to
get knocked down on some list sooner or later.  But if you bought it
for all those high numbers AND reasonable cost AND two equally
excellent receivers AND true diversity AND customer support AND
constantly evolving firmware AND configurability AND an owner who's
always listening to the troops AND ...  , then the other guys on the
list don't really compare.

I note that the one other REALLY sharp RX on the list (Perseus) does
not have a transmitter inside it's case.

PS, after listening to a friend for a while last night, I recommended
a 590 to him.  Whatever else, the K3 has had an enormous effect on the
state of the art.

73, Guy.
