[Elecraft] K3 - perceived RX and TX audio

[David Gilbert]

I don't believe that is totally accurate.  I'm guessing you're not an 
active contester.  The K3 is pretty good, but it most definitely does 
not have infinite capability to suit any situation.  Last I checked, low 
level pass band mixing was still an issue, as is the hard audio limit 
for some.
