Nice post Chris. Tnx for the comparison with a known contest rig. What I find amazing is that we're even comparing the K2 to an FT1000. That the $600 bone-stock K2 can truly run with the big boys (in this case, one that has been tricked out somewhat) is absolutely astounding.
- Keith N1AS - - K2 5411 - ----Original Message----- From: Chris Hurlbut I used my K2/100 and an FT1000D with the INRAD roofing filter mod in SO2R at WA7LT, low power. The close in *LOUD* signals is where there was a definite deficiency vs the FT1000D. A local, K7OX, was running HP, just a few miles away. If I was anywhere within about 10khz of him, I could still hear him on the K2. The FT1000D was dead quiet right up next to him. IMO, this is the only problem with the K2's RX! _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
