It's easy to demonstrate this. My real-world setting is Field Day, and the example is actually what my team experienced.
Take four rigs in a Field Day setting, within 100 yards of each other. Make sure one of them is a K3, and the others are Y/K/I types. On the same band, any of the Y/K/I rigs will create so much wideband [phase] noise on transmit that none of the other rigs are usable on receive. Transmit on the K3 and all the other rigs are usable on receive (same band, mind you). No BPF required in this case. This is very real-world. It's also the reason DXpeditioners use Elecraft products in close proximity with no ill effects. Field Day is just my Regular Joe example of the same thing. Yes, there is a huge difference - not just a statistic for the charts. 73, matt W6NIA On Wed, 02 Apr 2014 09:25:53 -0400, you wrote: >Can anyone really hear the difference between any of the top rated rigs >(Sherwood list) in the real world (not in a lab)? > >Bill K-Line > > >______________________________________________________________ >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 >Message delivered to mzil...@roadrunner.com Matt Zilmer, W6NIA -- "Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe." -A.
