[Elecraft] K3, KX3 comparison

[k6xt]

Yes. My friend K7SO brought his KX3 to my station for a test. The KX3 
acquitted itself very well against a well equipped K3. We were both 
impressed that connected to my good ant farm the KX3 receiver without 
crystal filter cleanly handled every loud sig we could find.

The KX3 is so good, in fact, the only reason my 2nd station isn't KX3 
equipped is due to lack of diversity and ext rx ant. I use rx ants and 
diversity for chasing low band DX just about daily. Thanks to the K3 - 
gotta have it.
