[Elecraft] K3/K2: cumulative HF xcvr review from eHam

[Wayne Burdick]

Interesting stats, Doug. I expected the KX3 to be right up there near the top, too, but then I realized it has only 99 reviews. Just missed The Cutoff :)  

eHam is a highly approximate metric for radio quality. But I do read every review, since they're are often posted by customers who aren't subscribed to our reflector. Lots of valuable observations, ideas for improvement, etc.
