K3 - Armchair copy

[Bill-3]

My location is very quiet - typically well under S1 on 75 and 40 during
the daytime. There is flat no QRM here. I can usually hear SSB stations
500 to 600 miles distant all day long on 75 - and can QSO with them
easily if they can hear me - few can, as most locations are not this quiet.

I have been told I waste my QTH, as I don't do much DX and no contests
at all. My enjoyment comes from armchair rag chew. The K3 excels for
this task, as I can easily eliminate offending nearby signals and noise.
That said, I really do wonder if I would get noticeable improvement from
the new synth board?

I asked previously, however didn't receive any really definitive
answers. Hence, I ask again. What improvements will I notice? Such as
less white noise? Improved filtering of nearby signals? Please, no
theoretical answers or lectures on hearing abilities - I want to hear
from experienced rag chewers that can relate if they have gained solid
and noticeable improvements from the new synth.

Thanks,

Bill W2BLC K-Line
