Radio looks great, it is big, even heavy.
200Watts and AC supply inside.
Even Panadapter there.
Sure a fine piece of gear. Price tag??
But still upconversion.
The only two downconverted modern rigs seem to be Orion and K3.
I already ordered a SoftRock v6 lite to be a PanAdapter for K3.
(Ask for 11 MHz crystal).

But I don't want a big, heavy radio! And besides, I've cleared the space on my desk for the K3.
