K3 receiver

Gary Gregory-2
The ability of the K3 to hear a whisper on  ssb below the noise floor is
nothing short of unbelievable.

Thankyou Elecraft!

My experience here also Gary, mainly work 160 SSB early mornings & the
ability of the K3 to hear signals through heavy QRM as well as wek
signals on quiet days is incredible!

Way in front of 857D, TS2000  IC706Mk2 with DSP noise reduction the
other current rigs.  Have recently sold the 706 & the others are soon to
go out the door also.

Hope to get a KX3 when finances permit.

Re: K3 receiver

When I bought my first new Elecraft a K2/100 loaded then a (used) K3 at that
time I had a FTDX-5000MP,FT-1000MP,IC-7000,IC-703+,IC9100and several others
that was in 8/12.

Then the Elecraft fever seemed to take over after comparing my main HF/6m
radio to my K3. Sold all my Yaesu gear radio and YL-1000 amp all except the
IC-9100 stayed with the K3/100, K2/100. After that I first bought a fully
loaded K3 my first one was a pretty much basic model K3/100 after that
everything just seemed to come the last being a KX3 or a KAT500 can't
remember.

Anyway the KX3 really is a great radio I do love mine.
