The quiet receiver is *very* pronounced when using data modes. I am so glad I sold my IC-7800 - this K3 is tons better.

Listening to the CW contest with 250Hz and 1kHz filters is a pure pleasure, I would bet money that I am listening to an analogue system.

The most striking thing I noticed initially is how quiet the receiver is.
The background band hiss is very much reduced.  In high contention
situations (such as Sweepstakes SSB), the amount of "crud" you normally hear is greatly reduced. The effect is even more pronounced when you turn on the
NR.  You tune across silence, and then there's a signal.  And another
signal.
