[Elecraft] Giving Up

[George Thornton]

I don't know the FTDX10 but it looks like it has a single receiver and can't be updated.

I note these Yaesu rigs seem to have crystal filters and use a combination of superhet and direct sampling architecture whereas the K4D is direct sampling.   I would hold off on reaching conclusions on relative performance until the K4HD comes out and is tested.  Only then would you get comparable radios.

Except that Yaesu radios have a long history of generating nasty clicks, and have more recently established the reputation of severe splatter on SSB.
