[SADXA] Bob Sherwood's List

[Alan Komenski]

I agree with you, Wes.  The differences between the top 10 radios on the list would likely not be noticed by most of us.

I thought it was interesting the Wayne was touting the K4 numbers to be very good in his comments on the Elecraft reflector.  And I would guess that he would be happy if the K4 numbers looked respectable, and I think they are even if not at the top of the list.

I say that even though my radio, and I do mean MY radio which was tested by Rob, is number five on the list and my other radio is number nine.   I should point out that the difference between No 5 and No 9 is 1 dB!  If the table is sorted on 100 kHz blocking, my No 9 moves up to No 1.
