[Elecraft] KX2 and Sherwood Eng. RX Performance Ranking?

[Peter Lambert]

Do you not like the KX2 compressor ?, don't use it ?, so much so that you
take the TT-715 along portable or at home strictly ?.

Interested in your observations.  If there is such a huge difference in
compressors I think certain gents that monitor this list might see that as a
challenge.

I think the Sherwood ranking to KX2 means nothing unless you have a KW amp
(e.g., Expert 1.3k after mods) and run it in a contest or DXpeditions. After
all, nobody will hear you. Also nobody will hear your IMD3 except your next
door neighbor. 

The biggest values of a QRP radio are:
1) convenience including good antenna tuner
2) well compressed signal on SSB if on phone

If KX2 is like KX3, big yes to 1) and not much to 2). But you can always buy
TT-715 and increase the punch of KX2 in SSB by 2-4 times.
