Using a rig harshly in a particular activity isn't necessarily a good 
indication of its capabilities in activities where that isn't how it is 
used. Not everyone is a serious contester or DX'er, though they are well 
represented on this reflector. What's good on the racetrack may not be 
the best suited to the road.

I can't see an IC-7300 in my future, but it seems to be of interest to a 
lot of hams who ordinarily wouldn't be interested in an entry level rig. 
But then I can't yet see a K3s in my future either for the kind of 
operating I do. My K2's have no shortcomings that interfere with my 
ability to enjoy a radio the way I want to enjoy it. My K1 answers MOST 
of those needs. hi.
