[Elecraft] FW: Sherwood Engineering

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

Also, please note that any comments by Rob regarding RX Audio and the K3 in 
those presentations refers to K3s sold many years ago. We've made substantial 
changes to the audio to address his concerns.

Admittedly, buying a radio in his top rankings shouldn't disappoint, but all of the data should be looked at. And price is certainly a parameter that needs to be considered along with Bob's data.

They contain minimal math and are a good discussion of the real receiver issues. That should put Bob's work in perspective and help make sense of the data. And, IMHO, using a K3 or KX3 is the way to go. And for me, my requirement set drove me to the KX3, and I haven't been disappointed.
