[Elecraft] Icom IC-7300

[Edward R Cole]

Jim,

I agree that the thread is pretty well thrashed, but -

I do like to hear comparisons of Elecraft equipment with other brands 
as it keeps abreast of what's happening out there.  Technology is 
"stampeding ahead" and all ham gear makers are susceptible to the 
changing landscape.

I hated win8.0/8.1 because it was geared to touch screen tablets 
(which I do not have).  I'm now waiting for my free upgrade to win10 
and return to more reasonable UI.  I have no smart phone or any cell 
phone.  My wife has a MOT "flip phone" that does phone calls...enough 
for us.  She lives on her I-pad3 but already got her win10 upgrade on 
her laptop which had win7.  My phone is a ten-year old Panasonic 
wireless 5-GHz phone that does speaker-phone for my OTE hearing 
aids.  I'll get blue-tooth on my next pair.

I chose the K3 partly because it has "knobs", which are more 
comfortable for making adjustments than using the mouse.  Yeah I'm an 
old f--t ham, 5-years retired, and heading toward 60-years on ham radio (2018).

K3/10 and KX3 with 2M satisfy my needs (until I can afford a 
KXPA100); saving for my new Synth's for the K3.

Can we be done with the IC-7300 stuff? After all, this is the Elecraft
mail list and I do not think it has anyplace here.  Just my opinion. I
am sure, somewhere there is a IC-7300 list that will fit your needs.
