Like you just said,everyone will have a different opinion but mine is that the second best rig which is very close to our K3's in performance is the Tentec Orion II that I owned as well in the past and sold because of been too big on the desk. AD4C

To: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net Date: Sunday, January 31, 2010, 9:40 AM John - I'm sure everyone will have a different opinion.and if you include "rigs of the past", then what was once good really may not be comparable to today's radios.but radios that I have enjoyed using in the past - that I thought were good performers at the time I owned them -- include Signal/One CX7B, Kenwood TS-930S, Kenwood TS-950SD, and Yaesu FT-1000D. I now have a K3 (actually two) and still have the FT-1000D which I still enjoy using occasionally. Most disappointing radio I have owned - a Signal/One CX-11A. It was supposed to be the "be all, end all". It wasn't. I'll be curious to see what others have to say. 73 de Greg-N4CC _____ From: John Merrill [mailto:johnn...@gmail.com] Sent: Saturday, January 30, 2010 9:40 PM To: Elecraft_K3 Subject: Re: [Elecraft_K3] Re: K3 comparison to TT Omni VII If the K3 is the best rig, what would be the second best including any of the past?
