[Elecraft] K4 Issue

[Lyn Norstad]

Nothing wrong with the 7300.  

For less than a grand, it outperforms just about everything else ... certainly in its price class.  Is it a K4?  Hardly.  But it is a well-designed, well-built true SDR workhorse.  I've had one for 3 years and it has been flawless in performance and durability.  Mine runs all day, every day - both digital and SSB.  No issues.  None.  With the MARS mod it even covers 630 meters.  It's a dream to interface with a computer, and it teams up nicely with the KPA/KAT500 combo.

It would also make a wonderful backup rig for a K series

Found it!

I bought an ICOM 7300.  I figure if I feed it right and provide the right fertilizer, it will grow into a K4D by Christmas.

Last I heard July or August.  People keep asking me when arrive now I tell them July or August but not sure what year since it is not posted for what year:-) I know one thing I have been waiting for over a year for it with a 5K bucks down payment interest free. On good thing is that 5k bucks is as n investment that did not loose value cause of the Mega depression. I need an anti K4 virus protection to counter the COVID-19 depression and blues.Jim K9TFJim K9TFSent from my T-Mobile 4G LTE Device
