Hey, Dave, thanks for bringing up the Elecraft K3 (I'm sure my wife
will thank you as well ;-) I just read the Receiver Topics section of
the page, and I can hardly believe my eyes. It looks like a RX dream
come true, even the XMTR notwithstanding.
I just have two questions - As I understand it, once in awhile it is
desirable to download improved software and programming from
Elecraft. Does this radio need to be always connected to a PC
otherwise, or is it perfectly fucntional as a stand-alone unit?
And, as configured in basic format, will it receive and properly
filter AM, or is that an add-on?
Save your money. Buy yourself a nice used Drake receiver.
Your wife may still love you.
OK. Why?
I'm searching for the right words. Perhaps D. Peter might help.
LOL!.
Brother, if I could explain women......
At any rate, one can spend just so much, and after one reaches a certain
point, it ain't gonna help.
It has to do I think with the 'law' of diminishing returns, or something like
that.
