Wes, I agree, and if you look at a post I made a couple days ago, it states that. Sherwood also states his list is sorted on one column and people shud take all factors into account when choosing a radio.
I would NOT recommend a K3 for it's audio. Each person has their needs and should review them carefully. I would also not recommend a Drake R4-C, even though it is in the top quartile. I will send you a copy of an earlier post that I made.

Rob has stated many times (look for his videos) that one number does not a radio make. In fact, as best that I know, he doesn't own a K3.
