Rather than the Travel Channel or How Its Made, maybe the crew from Dirty Jobs should do a show from Aptos. What with all the solder fumes and static electricity , etc.
Among others I have an SDR-1000 and a K3. The SDR requires a visual concentration on the monitor screen for all controls and info. It is not an operating style that I enjoy. I do enjoy the SDR receiver. However, I prefer a more auditory centered operating style that allows for my forehead to be on the desk while my right hand slowly turns the vfo dial - with the AFX engaged the K3 is very nice to listen to reminding me of the IMAX theater audio - coming from a panoramic field. Approaching eligibility for the Half Century Wireless Assoc., I intend to take advantage of my hearing for as long as I can. hi Low band QRN doesn't help for sure. May the Force be with you K3PO. 73, Mike K5NU _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
