I think the point was that a comparison between the two isn't
meaningful. I think (based on experience as an early adopter of both)
that the IC-7300 is outstanding bit of kit for the money.
The K3x performance is a bargain when compared to other company's
top-end radios.

trade my Elecraft for ALL the money I paid for it PLUS a FREE IC-7300.

I didn't see any comparison chart for the K3S and the IC-7610. I did
see the comparison of the K3S with the IC-7300. This made me laugh.
By the time you add up the required options for the K3S to achieve
feature parity with the IC-7300 it costs 3 times as much. This
actually makes the IC-7300 look like a really good deal. The IC-7300
is, after all, an entry level radio.
I'll never stop being impressed by the ability of the K3/K3S. But, to
me, it is no longer cost competitive. The only advantage the K3S has
today is it has one of the best receivers. I doubt this advantage
will last much longer.
