[Elecraft] Compare the K3 and the Icom IC-7300

[Bill]

I have been thinking of purchasing a 7300 as a backup to my K3 
(non-updated) and am wondering if anyone has done a real side-by-side 
comparison of the two radios??

Of course I could purchase a new K3S and keep the K3 as the backup. 
However, for my daily use of ham radio, I am not sure that would be the 
best approach for me.

I normally only operate on 40 and 75 meters on nets and rag chew. My 
station (speakers, antennas, etc.) is designed for armchair copy 
reception. To that end, the K3 does an excellent job.

So, if you have experience using both radios, I would sure like to hear 
from you. You may either post here, or contact me directly at 
w2blc.nycap.rr.com.

Thanks,
