Well after only two days [!] of playing it goes like this in my book.....K3 then TS 590 then the Eagle, BUT, as the famous expression goes, I would hate to live on the difference. Because of the simplicity of operation, the Eagle is a fun radio and would make some mobile rig. I am afraid that one has to use the radios to make ones own choice. There are lots of things that are subjective here. I caution anybody reading this that the K3 gets extra points for its unique expandability which the TS and Eagle do not have. The performance of all three is truly outstanding. When making your choice consider the Ten Tec 30 day return policy. If you buy the TS sight unseen and try to return it, you maybe out big bux. At this level of performance it is no longer the performance of the radios they are all great and much more than the typical ham needs, its things like.....service.....ergonomics...fit and feel...human interface.....computer
friendliness...etc.
Choose carefully ...... we hams are the winners. Competition is great. I will keep playing
