The 5000 is way better esp in class A operation. >A fully-loaded K3 is about $4900, and that assumes 8 pole filters in all slots in both receivers. A fully loaded FT-5000 is $5600. The FT-5000 exceeds the K3's >receiver performance in one category, and trails the K3 in every other RX performance category. The K3 also has a superior transmitter, as evidenced by the >IMD numbers in ARRL test results and elsewhere. >73, >Scott, N9AA ______________________________________________________________ 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
