It can have something to do with hearing weak ones when there are very
strong ones around.
I like the late Dick Heyser's comment about frequency response of sound

Mike,
Of course, you're right about approaching it from the "eliminate
the noise" point-of-view, but I live in a condo with a constant S-7 or
so noise floor on 40 meters. No, it's not all from the surrounding
units, but that 101D as seen in the videos I've watched, seems to do

As far as the radio goes, it seems to work very respec

Very interesting and useful experiential info! It's much appreciated.

Scott,
Well, yes: The "numbers" say one thing (or several things!), but,
like I said, I'm in love with Elecraft... So, yes, I'm prejudiced! Of
course the "top radio (FT-DX101D)" is somewhat more expensive then the
6400, and does seem to have some nice whistles and bells. Who knows?

Rich, Et Al,
Thanks for the comments.
Yes, I'm aware that this might bring up some sort of issues people
have with the manufactures or personal experience. My own is that when I
was ordering the radio, I could afford the 6400. But what I was hoping
for, maybe in vain, is some informat
The 6400 is $2000.

Interesting question. The Flex 6700 is close to the top of the list with
some sort of updated hardware, while the 6400 is below the original K3,
and far below the K3 with the new synthesizer(s). The difference
between the 6700 and the K3 with new synth is only 1 dB in terms of
narrow spaced d

Hi!
I was wondering whether there is anyone who has done a side-by-side
comparison between the K4 and the Flex 6400 or any other Flex "direct to
digital" radio?
