[Elecraft] K3: vs a Collins S-line RX

[Dale Putnam]

I'd get one.. if it were general coverage. I could replace a many years old rx, and have the best!

Have a great day,

When things heat up, though, the K3 pulls away at a rapid rate and wins hands down.   Couldn't afford a Collins back in the 60s and *still* can't afford one today!!!  73, Stan, WB2LQF
