Ed, I agree with your evaluation completely - There is not a more demanding contest for a receiver than the 160M CW. I was BLOWN AWAY by the unbelieveable performance of my K3. I don't have the sub rcvr (yet) but your write up is quite convincing. I am about 100 Mi from the W8JI contest station and I was able to qso very weak stations within 200Hz of Tom's 60 over nine sigs - He was clean as a pin and my 250Hz filter made it like he wasn't there! Amazing! I have a local ham who was running with the legal limit about a mile away and I did not know he was on until I stumbled across him while doing SAP. My old rig would desense and go to pieces when he fired up!
You sounded like a local here as well! 73 Gill W4RYW Ed Gray W0SD wrote: > > How the K3 and KRX3 did in the 160M ARRL Contest: > > The K3 and KRX3 are amazing radio's and don't let anybody tell you they > are not.
