Below is the actual data and link to the public source of Rick's comment
about rigs used in WRTC.

P.S.  In case others missed it there was a major firmware update (MCU 4.86
DSP 2.83) on June 10.  For some reason there was no announcement about it
(see http://www.elecraft.com/K3/k3_software.htm )

Andy N2NT is still collecting data, but his preliminary release showed the  
following breakdown of radios used at WRTC2014 for 91 radios he compiled.  
I'll show the final when he releases it, maybe later this week.
 
Not surprising figures, as the K3 has a lot of features in a small  
package. Great for worldwide travel. 
 
It should be noted that at least 2 of the IC7600's were loaners from  
sponsor Icom. One pair went to the YL Team of DL1QQ/DL8DYL, who finished
well,  
21st. 
 
More  when I know more.
