It is well known that contesters prefer the best performing radios for contests because contest environment is the most demanding as far as RX/TX specs are concerned. World Radio Team Championship in Moscow in 2010 was the assembly of the best contesters of the world. Now ask yourself why out of 104 rigs used in this competition 53 were made by Elecraft. Why practically any DXpedition nowadays has at least one K3 as their main radio? On the other hand if you need transceiver for local ragchew, any make or model will do.
73, Igor UA9CDC P.S. Look for me from Senegal as 6V7Z in Russian DX contest and WPX SSB contest. We will use K3 with subRX and Expert 1K-FA amp from there between the 16th and 27th of March. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Hisashi T Fujinaka" <ht...@twofifty.com> To: <elecraft@mailman.qth.net> Sent: Sunday, March 11, 2012 1:09 PM Subject: [Elecraft] Can anyone give me pointers to Sherwood reports? > I'm fantasizing about a new radio and I do know how much I like my K2.
