[Elecraft] Sherwood's receiver performance table updated

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

Folks - In the interest of relieving our list readers from severe single topic 
email overload, let's end this thread now.

While an interesting topic with lots of good comments, its had a -huge- number 
of postings. It is time to give it a rest.

(I would have jumped in earlier yesterday, but I was extremely busy at my other 
job - making the best all around radios in the world :-)

73,
