[Elecraft] KX3 "Full" SDR

[Fred Smith]

The KX3 is a real radio in every way not a computer and one that can be
taken with you for portable operations, batteries unlike a computer/monitor.
For another better receiver performance than the Flex and very small
footprint as far as limitations none only more advantages with the KX3.

Happy New Year,

I want to move into the hobby aspects of SDR and have narrowed my list to
the KX3 with 100 watt Amp or a Flex 3000.  I have been told that though the
KX3 will connect to a PC it is not a "full" SDR radio (my understanding of
"full" is in regard to signal processing but there may be other factors
implied that I am not aware of being new to the SDR world).  

If this perspective is on target, what are the important SDR limitations
with the KX3 that I should consider?  If there are no important limitations,
I do like the form factor and knobs on the KX3 over the Flex software-only
interface.

Thank you,

Craig Schroeder
