[Elecraft] IC-7300 video - things to come

[Gary Smith]

I'm not the one here with the most money, 
I'm absolutely positive of that, but that 
said; I can buy any rig I want and the 
dollars spent wouldn't in any way affect 
me, or anything I do in the future. 

I just bought a K3S because of the many 
things it represents but I'm not a martyr 
to buy USA when something else is better 
or, buy something wonderful that is 
software based only like the Flex 6700; I 
bought the K3s because to my discovery, it 
is the finest radio out there. Yes, this 
is the Elecraft reflector so most of us 
are already on board but I bought this 
radio (I upgraded from an updated K3) 
because it is to me, the pinnacle of 
today's equipment.

I just worked the VK0KE on 160 last night. 
I honestly, to God do not think that any 
radio I have ever owned before, save the 
K3 with the updated synthesizer, would 
have heard the incredibly diminutive 
signal that I heard reply to me. I was the 
first NA station to post them in the 
cluster yesterday and that is because of 
the quality of this radio. The K3s Rocks.

IC-7300 Video... Pffttt.
