Oh, please tell me more. For home use, which rig has a better receiver? Which one sounds better? Does one have the advantage over the other if you're NOT leaving home?
- Keith N1AS - - K2 5411 - =============================================== The K1 has the better receiver. It also sounds better. Some say that the K1 sounds better than the K2. The KX1 has a much wider tuning range. You can even use it for SWLing. It can be used crossmode in SSB bands. You can use it in bed, as the designer does. It can be used in the dark or by sight impaired, as it will output all necessary info via morse code. I think in all other respects, the K1 is better at home or on car trips. The ATU option in the K1 will tune more antennas. KE6US has more info and opinions on his website. (See QRZ.com) The K1 has up to twice the output of the KX1. I would like an RF gain control and have even considered sacraficing the AF gain control to add one but that is just my operating style.
