I used one on Field Day a year and a half ago. Yes, it was pretty, but it put out enough trash to bother other stations in our group. One of my neighbors has a 7600. He's quite active, drives an amp with it, and makes quite a mess of phase noise and IMD when he transmits. I've heard a similar report from a member of our club who was on a big DX trip that had them because ICOM gave them a lot of radios for free. The K3 is MUCH cleaner, and the RX has much better strong signal handling. 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
