Excellent points, Doug. Still, the bang/buck ratio belongs to Elecraft,
especially at the high end, in my view. For example, if you took that $4,269
on the K line, added approx $2000 more to it and put it into an IC 7700,
say, you come out far behind performance-wise and 2 grand poorer too. So I
don't see how one really comes out ahead in that case.

I don't doubt at all that Icom's high end rigs are good rigs with good
performance, but the K3 and K3S at the core of the Elecraft investment still
far outperform them for less money. For me anyway, Icoms offer nothing
comparable to the K line at the upper end of the $ range, not even close.

As for the 7300, though, I think you make an excellent point. It does offer
a definite draw for the market you describe...
