During my visit to Osaka earlier this year I was thoroughly asked about the
design principles and my user report of K3. Japanese manufacturers do give a
close eye on K3.
Competition among manufacturers are good to the end users.

主題： Re: [Elecraft] K3: Yaesu copies K3's design
Just about time japaneese companies wake up and take the K3 architecture,its
the only way to improve the receiver performance.
Aparently Icom is coming also with something similar on his new IC-9100 with
optional roofing filters of 6 and 3 Khz.
Good,soon we'll have their competition,we'll see how good they are when they be
tested by Sherwood/ARRL labs.

Hi
It looks like Yaesus new FT5000 has copied the K3's architecture
The K3 will be getting a serious run for its money in the next few months.
Yaesu looks like it has done some serious competition analysis.
Features...
9 mhz IF
Not up conversion
Narrow roofing filters
99 db 3rd dynamic range +25dbm 3rd order intercept point @ 1khz
200 watts, 75 Class A
300 hz roofing filter.
MP and FT5KD version
Bandscope and many other features
It looks like Yaesu have taken the K3's performance ideals and put it
into a bigger box. The brochure is on the yahoo groups web page for those
interested.
This radio is going to be very popular because it seems that a lot of the
criticism of the K3's apparent failings seem to have been corrected in the
new Yaesu FT5K design
All very interesting
