I installed the new K3 synthesizers in my rig today.  Install went very
easy even without a cat (or in my case a dog) on my lap.  I am pretty much
a SSB and Digi operator.  I did tune around a bit looking for a couple of
SSB signals that were right on top of each other to see if I could hear any
difference from before.  My impression is that my K3 is quieter over all
(almost urban environment with a lot of RFI), and I felt that I could more
easily copy one signal over another closely spaced signal.  I didn't seem
to hear that rumble from another station even though it was only a few KCs
away.  Does this make sense?  I will give the receivers a good work out
this weekend but my first impression is very favorable.
