K3 as a SSB rig

N4GW
Hey guys,

I am just trying to give myself a "feel good" about this rig.  I ordered mine in December and I am still anxiously awauiting for it's arrival.  I am a 90% SSB user and want to make sure I made the right choice in the K3.  I know it is an excellent CW rig, but just wanted to make sure it does as well in SSB.  Can any of you current owners give me some feedback ragarding this.

Thanks,
Mike

Mike, I ordered my K3 in December also, so don't have
any hands on, but after hearing the guys work at VP6DX
I am not worried about it.  The person doing the
complaining seemed to have different expectations than
I do for SSB.  I don't expect to filter out a SSB
signal that is 2 khz up or to have good sounding audio
with a 1 kHz bandpass.  I am confident and hopeful
that the K3 will be a noticeable improvement over my
TS-850, but don't expect that Elecraft has repealed
the laws of physics.
