K3 mods by I7SWX

Twan at pa0kv.nl
Hi!
I just read all about the I7SWX mods and I was wondering what Elecraft's
point of view is in this?
Are these mods really a major improvement? (Are is it 'crap'..)
Are there any plans in the near future to build a new mixer module with
this technology?
What about the other mods;
- terminating the filter bank
- PSU voltage regulator noise

As allways.. very interested in K3 improvements 8-)

73's  Twan - PA0KV

K3 - 1770

Twan,

The K3 is one of the highest-performance radios available (very high  
on everyone's list, including Sherwood's). A small additional  
improvement in one or two parameters may be of interest to a few  
operators. The other 99.9% of K3 owners do not need to make any  
modifications.
