[Icom] NB on PRO

[Sean Baxter]

Dave:
The K2 is a nice small QRP radio.  The SSB audio is very narrow but the main
focus of this radio is CW.  It does a good job with the 7 pole filtering on
CW.  I do not have very strong signals near by to say the K2 is better than
the Pro, RX numbers say it is.  The K2 might have great RX specs but let me
tell you,  the difference in ease of operation and audio quality (TX & RX)
is like the difference between driving a Cadillac and a Yugo.
However, it is interesting that the K2 does have a more flexible NB.

I do not have a K1 only the K2.
