I used one on Field Day a year and a half ago. Yes, it was pretty, but 
it put out enough trash to bother other stations in our group. One of my 
neighbors has a 7600. He's quite active, drives an amp with it, and 
makes quite a mess of phase noise and IMD when he transmits.  I've heard 
a similar report from a member of our club who was on a big DX trip that 
had them because ICOM gave them a lot of radios for free. The K3 is MUCH 
cleaner, and the RX has much better strong signal handling.
